168. I remember hearing
Edited on Mon Feb-09-04 10:22 PM by Lydia Leftcoast
about Stalin's death (my mother is half Latvian) a couple of months before my third birthday (It astonished me to realize this), but the first major event I watched on the news myself was the Hungarian Revolt of 1956. I also remember people talking a Senator McCarthy, but I don't remember seeing him on TV or anything.

The first time I saw television was when I was three. We went to my great-uncle's house to watch Queen Elizabeth's coronation on TV.

I was born in 1950.
