What year does “history” start for you, before which you feel like a pure spectator/documentary watcher/book reader? I think 1982 for me. Events after 1982 have a live salience and are open to rewrites in long-term personal memory for me

I see different readings of the question in the responses. Sporadic episodes like the Atlanta Olympics 1996. wrt continuous personal attention, probably starts 9/11. On history 'in color': lol probably my lifetime only, USSR seems unreal to me and collapsed the year I was born.
