5. I remember the 50s well

Grew up in the suburbs on Long Island. It's difficult to realize that the 50s were almost 50 years ago; when my family talked about the "war" it meant WWII (my two uncles fought in Europe). I actually saw John Kennedy in real life in the Fall of 1960 when his campaign caravan drove along Hempstead Turnpike.
