        @4norsemen @BeschlossDC The week made such an impact on so many kids (and adults). Will we be alive in Nov.? Perfect conflict for fiction!

        @BeschlossDC I do indeed....a little scary, even to a five-year-old. Enmeshed in my mind with 1962 Yankees-Giants World Series.

        @BeschlossDC Kennedy's tone of voice terrified me. Lived in Camp David flight path & every helicopter made me hide under the covers.
