is a logical fallacy that means "after the fact, therefore because of the fact." In this case, we are dealing with a population many of whom lived through interesting times along with most of our peers. But all heroin (coke, tobacco, alcohol, Nintendo, whatever) addicts started out on . . . milk and mashed bananas. It may be that most if not all CHers have some addiction, but so do most if not all non-CHers.
