All 3 years that are mentioned in the poll had some specific change on them, mostly it's about the cultural, music, and technology changes.

Out of the three, I'm going to give my edge to 1997, even though 1996 and especially 1998 had more technological changes. Like what I mentioned before, 1997 had many new things from that time coming out, and it's more than technology. I think that 1997 had changes in TV, music, culture, society, and to a certain extent, world civilization! 1996 had many changes in culture too, but not to a degree of being big. The 1992-1995 grunge era was already in a decline, and bubblegum pop (Spice Girls, Backstreet Boys, etc.) was coming, but wasn't into effect until the middle of 1997.

I don't remember; they're all a blur.

I thought you were going to give pivotal years in history, like 1945, 1968, 2001, etc.

I see this is your second thread on 1997. What's up? Is that the year you were born?

Historically speaking, you're splitting hairs.

I figured 1968 would be on this list for sure.

I'm thinking that 1989 or 2001 are far better candidates.

1996 because the Braves won their only WS and the Bulls were the greatest team of all time

2013. I spent October and November in the Hospital.

This was 1-2 months before my 50th birthday.

I came close to dying, but pulled through. I live my life so differently now.

1996, because the U.S. Presidential election that year set the stage for the 2000 U.S. Presidential election.
