As near as I can tell, the term Mellenials comes from the book
Generations:The History of America's Future, 1584 to 2069 by
Neil Howe and William Strauss.  (Coincidentally, I'm right in the
middle of reading this book right now, based on a recommendation
by Rob Rousseau.)  The book was written the year before the term
Gen X was coined, so they call GenXers "13ers" (since it is the
13th generation in the U.S.) and they also call Gen Y "Mellenials".
They say people in that generation were born starting about 1982.

Cheers,
Tanner (definitely a Gen Xer)
