That would be 78's right? Hell, just think if she picked one of the war years. Rationing! No sugar! No new tires!

By the way, has anyone on this thread ever read The Fifties by David Halberstom? A very interestnig book. Holiday Inn came into being in the fifties. And a lot of other stuff we use today.
