Just because I was  at home  puppy sitting I thought Lets see what happened in a year gone Bye, I chose 1970 at random but it was strange the memories it brought Back, There were  things happening other than outright war and carnage so have a look at the link and see what you remember,

Of course some things led to problems as they do Today, So bad news is not something new but a lot of things that happened in 1970,had a bearing on 2017 :whistling:

The obviously you have not read the Whole thing or your History needs a little updating which is why I Started the Topic but just for Arguments sake, Rhodesia is kicking off again just after the new year.

 I do hope you will not turn this into an argumentative Topic

Seems like a lot happened in the world that year Jack.  

As far as some people people remembering where they were or what they were doing on a given date or even year, I'm always rather amazed that they can remember such things! I can remember milestones or feelings that I might of had at a given time, but dates and years just escape me oftentimes.:smile: I don't think it's just this tropical clime...

to this day I am convinced that the government giving things to people who are not really in need is the wrong way to go.   I turned things around that year (about '83) and never looked back.

Off topic again.  By coincidence, this was just posted on FB.
