Thanks for that Karen - I love unknowingly setting up someone for a really funny line.

So what does define a "W" culturally, let's see.

The Challenger Explosion?

8 years of Reagan?

Iran Hostage situation?

The beginning of both the computer revolution and the cable TV explosion? (I remember I was 15 or so when MTV began - and my first computer was a Commodore Vic 20, though I had a friend who had an early Apple)

Some people say live aid, but I worked through most of it and after a couple days no one was talking about it.

From another thread - Dungeons and Dragons and other role playing games. - I stil have the first editions of the DM's Guide, Payer's Handbook and Monster Manual.

The end of casual sex and "safe drugs" (you probably know what I mean).

anything else? More good stuff?
