world till now has been run by dumb asses assholes, fuel efficiency gets going when you create mass transportation which carries each train car more passengers then a normal car and it has multifold uses, starting with stress free commute to passengers yet bringing them to destination/stations second almost no carbon emissions, reducing diseases caused by pollution. third speed people reaching far more quicker, 4 revenue states government earning endless revenues as long as good speed clean efficient commute is being provided 5 the biggest point fuel conservation as in ratio of car taking passenger load versus train/metro undergrounds capacity to carry passengers in each bogie car of theirs, yet world given in hands of assholes till now is suffering and is going to suffer more.

If I'd been born on April 8th, instead of April 9th, I would've been at that game where Hank Aaron hit his record-breaking home run. My uncle bought us all (me & my sister, my parents, my grandparents, him, my aunt, and my cousin) tickets to the Braves game against the Dodgers on April 9th -- my birthday. We knew Hammerin' Hank was going to break the record in early April, and we'd hoped to get lucky. Unfortunately I was born a day late, as it turned out. However, I did get an autographed baseball from Hank, which I still have to this day of course, and I still have the ticket stub too. One of my most cherished memories.

I turned 18 in 1974. None of this crap was important to me.
I was an apprentice electrician, smoked alot of weed, and bought my first harley davidson.
I retired as a master electrician one year ago, smoke alot of weed, and switched to a big block suzuki
cruiser. It's been one hell of a ride!

I was never a big D&D fan. I was more of a Strat-O-Matic Baseball player and then later when I got my Commodore-64 and an AppleIIe for my birthday I found computer versions of those games. I did play Warhammer on home consoles later as well but as far as D&D went I just wasn't a fan.

You forgot about the Disaster Movie Craze in that year with The Towering Inferno (Steve McQueen, William Holden, & OJ Simpson) & Earthquake (Charlton Heston, Victoria Principal, Ava Gardner, & George Kennedy) with its gimmick of Sensoround effects in cinemas across the country.

I graduated high school in 1974 and signed up for the draft that birthday. I went away to the North Carolina Appalachian Mountains for a month on an Outward Bound wilderness course and I learned that Nixon had resigned while I was away. Then off to college.

Im so glad that your producer forced the Neil Peart story on you, otherwise my dad wouldve had a conniption! Im lucky enough to have been born in the late 90s, but Ive seen Rush 3-4 times! Peart was a brilliant drummer, easily the best of his time!

My brother knew someone who was on a speed trip and when they came down from it, slept for at least two days. During that time, Nixon resigned & Ford became President! Needless to say, the person totally freaked out!

Is there any weird history videos made on the 1960's? I'd love to see that decade brokendown! I feel like you really packed a perfect blend of sports, politics, entertainment, music, and pop culture into each episode.

Pinochet is the best thing that ever happened to Chile. He got rid of the communists and eventually restored Democracy. Chile went from a poverty ridden hell hole to one of the wealthiest countries in the world.

Isn't it funny that every time the FBI engages antigovernment groups they always end up killing the people and usually accidentally burning down the houses with the people still inside?

In 1974 I was making love on the carpet. A medallion was pulling at my chest hair and some blonde with pubic hair that could choke a gorilla was licking my sideburns.

I hitchhiked all over the same County at the time Bundy was on his killing spree, i was 14 & 15 and somehow didn't cross paths, no fear as a dumb teenager.

March 1974, Japanese officer Hiroo Onoda surrenders on the Philippine island of Lubang. He was the last confirmed soldier still fighting World War Two.

Your producer sounds pretty cool. As an American Rush are my favorite Canadians. They turned me on to Ayn Rand and it changed my life!
