We are getting f***ing stupid because of the internet.

I see it as a bane and blessing in terms of obtaining information. It is easier to obtain said information via the internet but at the same time too easy to run into unreliable sources of said information.

1962ish to 1973: Cuban Missile Crisis in late 62, JFK and MLK assassinations in 1963


MLK was assassinated in 1968.

I apologize, I meant letter from a Birmingham jail which kicked off MLK's prominence. Not his sad end.

70s and 80s? Pretty good. In some ways better than now.

The 1950s were a bit odd, lots of optimism and faith in science and the USA. I do remember Air Raid drills in elenentary school, where we would hide under our desks to protect us from flying glass if the Russians nuked the Strategic Air Command base 200 miles away.
