6 June 1944 is the single most important day in the 20th century.

Sadly, I was just at the grocery store writing a check. The clerk young offered, today is June 6. I replied, "Of course. Everyone remembers D-day."

Her answer, "What's D-day?" I patiently explained that it was the day the Allied forces invaded France and began the liberation of Europe. Thousands died."

Her reply, "Oh, I thought it had something to do with Terminator."
