Message: [QUOTE="Tracy Smith, post: 244968, member: 147242"] Good post, Randy. I was born in 1958, so I remember a lot of those things you mention about the sixties, but from the perspective of a child. I was five when JFK was shot, but I do remember it. I was ten when his brother got killed, and I remember that our family was among the thousands of people who went to NYC to wait hours in line in order to file past his closed casket to pay our respects. I remember the Vietnam War mainly as nightly updates on the evening news (Huntley and Brinkley nightly news for all us oldsters who remember that). As an adult, I look back on the sixties and remember it generally as a time of transition, when the world was making a major shift, probably one of the major turning points of the century. [/QUOTE]
