Due to being younger than many here apparently, my first experiences with this rally start with the Challenger exploding. However, I think that television
has warped things on shows besides the news. For instance, when I was around 10 Nick at Night came to be... because of it I saw many of the shows he grew up
with, I floored him one night correcting him on the plot points of a random episode of I think it was My Three Sons, this was late '80s. I was literally
watching shows that had been on when he was a kid. The raw availability of the past has warped future generation till the next Apocalypse, at least.
You want something worse than the effects of understanding a name in the news 50 years or so ago... think about what it means that you can make obscure 50 year
old pop culture references and aren't taught in school and instantly have it caught by a ten year old. One you didn't teach to them or know they knew
about.
