Funny, the older you get, particularly in the TV age, the more history you witness... And you sort of don't grasp the significance, till sometimes years later...
I remember laughing, as a child, watching on TV, the north Vietnamese tank getting stuck in the palace gates at the end of the Vietnam war..... Didn't get my parents relief that that damn war was over..... Being from a pretty politically aware family, I've seen too many wars, too much injustice.... Good things,too.... Band aid, Australia 2( yes, I'm aussie.), Haley's comet ( while drunk in the desert), fall of the berlin wall, the apology to the stolen generation...... Shame the bad events outweigh the good!!!
(Though still remember watching sept 11 like it was yesterday, you don't forget s**t like that!! And the shitshow that followed....)
