The U.S. Census Bureau said several years ago that it does not officially define "Baby Boom", but it uses titles such as "Selected Characteristics of Baby Boomers 42 to 60 Years Old in 2006" ([url]http://www.census.gov/population/www/socdemo/age/[/url]) which amount to defining Baby Boomers as those born in the years 1946-1964.

Next July 4, the U.S. will be 236 years old. The oldest Baby Boomers turn 66 this year, which is more than one-fourth the age of the United States; the youngest turn 48, which is more than one-fifth the age of the United States.

How do you say Mpemba? I know it has nothing to do with the wiki post's science, but I'm curious.

Both answers are kinda dubious because of their poor spelling.
I'll give you another one (and before you get excited, I'll tell you - it's a joke):
"You click yout tongue between M and p."
Or another one:
"Bemba"

Another piece of trivia: [SPOILER]my last name is spelled Mpatalov in Greek. In Greek, [FONT=Times New Roman]β[/FONT] is actually a V sound; to make up a proper B you need Mp.[/SPOILER]
