Thanks motormaker.

I was living in the US when that happened.

It seemed surreal.

Sorry to hear about the 52 people who died. :-( Thank you for remembering and sharing. Life sure has some moments!

You can arrange calendar numbers in anyway you want... they don't mean anything to me.. I wasn't around on June 6, 1906.. or 6/6/6.. and I survived June 6, 1966.. or 6/6/66.. I wasn't old enough to write checks back then, and write the date... and I can't think of anything significant that happened on July 7, 1977 - 7/7/77, but I'm sure it was a very good day for a lot of people, and bad for others...
Thanks for the history of dates!

Don't forget 8-8-88 ! I remember that because I worked at a traveling photographer, giving customer their due dates for their photos. So, for weeks, I was aware that date was coming. Funny, it's been seemed just a flash since it happened- though longer than my anticipation of the date!
