Followed an ad above my blog for "the best art ever the world has never seen," a place where young folks can post their artistic work, be criticized, and criticize. The first line of the featured short story:
"One day when I was a kid in 1962 and the world changed forever."
What was never seen has now been, and there's no going back. Speaking of 1962, I really enjoyed the movie Ten Days, a drama all-American style up close and personal of the Cuban Missile Crisis. Why did I like it? 'Cause they took the trouble to use F8 Crusaders for the raids into Cuba, when it would have been easier to use F-4 Phantoms. Hurray for historical accuracy; hurray for nerds who consider hardware more important than software (bios)!
