GenX ended in 1981. I barely made the cut.

82, here. And I feel us 'Oregon Trail' millennials(including say, 83) should technically qualify to post and comment here, as well. Especially if you have VERY CLEAR memories of doing things before the internet was a big thing, such as using PHYSICAL encyclopedia volumes at libraries(both regular libraries, and school libraries) before high school to write school papers.

In my first years of high school(96-98), doing research online still wasn't a regular thing for people to do. The internet still felt like the wild west back then, and AOL trial discs still were very common to find in all sorts of places(Blockbuster Video, etc). I also remember Google didn't become a big search engine, till like the early 2000s.
