RE: Happy Birthday Danny boy!
Dan,
Indeed yes, a child growing up in the 60's had a different view than today for sure.
The thought that Cleveland, Ohio could be vaporized in an attack was very real.
Not the Russians but "The Soviets" as I quickly became to know them then were very real.
Then in October 1962 (I was 8), Cuba and the crisis, wow we came so close to really doing the unthinkable.
Looking back on all that now it still seems a bit real but not as intense as it was back then. The world has changed a lot for the good but still some change not so good.
The messages in those shows, Amen! There was a clear message and one just had to think for a moment as to the true context.
