Wow. Just the music...
This is fascinating to me because it mostly took place in a time during which I was alive (born summer '87) yet blissfully unaware of what was going on in the world. I remember Clinton being elected, and my dad (who is now a Limbaugh-listening conservative) voting for him. Pretty soon we had dial-up, and Mosaic, and the dot-com boom...but that's a different story, and mine's a lot less interesting than yours.
I'll echo the others in saying: keep 'em coming.

A lot of our lives are oddly bound to Nixon's. He was a weird, fascinating president that way.
For example, under Nixon, Amtrak was formed. I currently work in the passenger rail business, and guess who our single biggest customer is?

Isn't Amtrak pretty much the only game in town? I suppose there are regional commuter rail as well.

There is a Lemons connection to the Impala's ultimate fate.

All the subways, regional commuter rails..plus the international markets.
