Message: [QUOTE="oldhusky, post: 4353791, member: 9844"] You both have hit on the most significant events for many of our old-timers. I remember being in school when JFK was shot. There was an announcement on the intercom that all the teachers were called to a meeting, leaving the students in their classroom wondering what was going on, but we knew it was something major. When my teacher returned to the class with a serious look on her face she told the kids the president had been shot. Only a few days later there was another major shocking event on live TV. When Lee Harvey Oswald was being transferred between buildings, they had live coverage of it, so quite a few people saw Jack Ruby murder him when it actually happened. [/QUOTE]
