Prelude to "Things Forgotten?"

I've been wanting to write something about this "Year of the 40th" anniversary for quite a few days and have just not made the time to do so. I loved watching the space program; I was eight when we landed on the moon. A year later, I "lived" 1969s Woodstock by listening to the amazing three-record set with my older brother. I'll try to bring some sense of meaning to it all, at least from the perspective of a junior baby boomer, but I still don't have the time. In the meantime, here is something to think about: a link to "100 Things" that future kids will not know about. I'm not sure that I agree with all of it, especially considering how no kid can escape the events of our youth today, but it is fun to look at, nevertheless.
