Type your birth year into the box on this page, click on the question mark, and then take a trip back in time.

Nice one! How do you always find this stuff? Too much time on your hands? Wink

In the year of my birth, every Nobel prize winner was a man.

A man for all seasons cleaned up at the Oscars.

I remember the Valley of the Dolls, I've read the book and it's predecessor; Painton Place.

Casual sex and recrecreational drug use were rife.

Many governments turned to the left.

Feminism gained popularity.

'Twas a good year. )

There was no Google yet. Or Yahoo. Or Wizzley, for that matter.

Pretty cool stuff.  I'm wondering what people can remember of their lives that far back (farther for some of us than for others).

That was great!  And the song that they quoted to me was a Riot Grrl one. *smirk*

I knew most of the obvious history parts, but there were loads of obscure pop culture ones which I didn't.

I was born into quite a violent, revolutionary world.  Game on.
