I've enjoyed reading this thread that Willis started...off-topic, but certainly of high interest to all. My own memory: I was a sophomore at Waynesburg (PA) College...I was in the student lounge studying, when suddenly students began to migrate like lemmings toward a B&W TV that was mounted high on the wall in the opposite corner of the large room...that's a vivid memory, of about 200 students all rushing toward the TV as word spread, all swept up in the moment...and there was our local KDKA-TV (2) newscaster Bill Burns passionately announcing that the President had been shot, and that they were switching from their usual sap opera broadcast at that time to the CBS net & Walter Cronkite...and then the rest we all know...students crying...and I was lying on the couch at home watching the coverage on our B&W Zenith 23", when I saw Ruby kill Oswald...such memories...
