What three televised news reports in your life left images you most often remember? Mine, as seen on a teeny b&w Motorola TV were - 1967: The Six Day War initiated by Israel 1968: The Tet Offensive 1969: Apollo moonlanding/Neil Armstrong's walk #FridayFun #TV #History #Events

1969: moon landing, on The School Television. At 6 I was disappointed it was all fuzzy. 1989: munching-off of the top of the Berlin Wall, which seemed an utterly impossible event. I can't think of a third one, having lived a largely TV-free life, but I remember radio versions.

Print has always been my primary medium until digital and now I use sites for two major activities: Social interaction and reasearch. I bought one TV in 1996. Radio through the 70s I had, then only in cars. Speaking of cars, I bought my car new in 1999. Just hit 30,000 miles!

Most newspapers here are rabidly biased and it's the broadcasters that try to be objective鈥擨 think it's the other way round in the US? I like your approach of using the same car for as long as possible (though I don't have one). I hate the waste of replacing things just . . .

It used to be the opposite in the US, notably during Watergate, but certain newspapers like my hometown New York Times tilt left but not rabit at all like the New York Post. I, too, hate waste. A roomate was about to throw out two huge bags of several times used clothes . . .
