[QUOTE="Padraic, post: 7423, member: 96"] [b]Padraic[/b] I am much obliged to you for the insight. I often hear people of my age group talk about the "good old days" of the cold war and I am at times at something of a loss in those conversations because what I know is from reading and their experience is first hand and based on personal memory. Someone will mention the Soviet Union falling and I will respond with something vague like, "I'll never forget that day", when in truth I do not remember that day, not having been around when it happened. That is what I like about this group of people here. I feel that I can ask you all questions that will help me blend in easier without you thinking I am completely out of my wits. If I were to approach someone who does not know my background, but who can see my receding hairline and developing paunch, (not in the shape I was in when I arrived) and ask him to tell me about the Gulf War or the downfall of the Soviets, he will think I have an extremely poor memory or I am not quite right in the head. If I then try to explain why I have no memory of those events, he will really think my wits have deserted me. So once again, thank you for the answers and the insights into this era. I asked a couple questions along those lines on the other board, but they pertty much got looked over in favor of all the questions folks kept asking me. It felt rather one sided at times.
