This is an image taken Monday Sept. 11, 2014 of YES and NO supporters for the Scottish Independence Referendum stand next to each other in Edinburgh. Across Scotland, dinner table talk is getting heated as families fight over how to vote in Scotland's independence referendum. A generation gap has opened up, with younger voters more inclined to back independence and their elders saying they want to remain in the United Kingdom. Support for the status quo is strongest among the over-60s _ who are worried about the consequences of breaking free on pensions, health-care and their savings; the pro-independence movement is largely being driven by the under-40s. With both sides neck-and-neck in the polls, the rival campaigns have called on their core supporters to make a last ditch attempt to swing the vote.
