I vividly recall the Zodiac Killer. My sister and myself were just kids then (and living far, far from San Francisco)
***I recall it as well. But we lived near SF and the threat was definitely real. The bus driver had us doing duck & cover type drills. There were movies about what to do in case you’re abducted. It started my habit of looking at every single car and remembering its license plate number, if only long enough to write it down in the dirt. This has actually come in handy during a couple of car accidents and other incidents I’ve witnessed.

Oh my. That's absolutely amazing. I can't imagine what it must have been like for you and the other schoolkids at the time. We were way over in the Upper Southeast and we were scared to death!
