"It was twenty years ago today...
... NASA jokes we began to say."
I remember where I was, when I found out. How about those Concord, NH kids?
Feynman? Who knew?

I was sick at home (in Wilmington, MA- this is pre-Concord by a year and a half) watching 'Cloak And Dagger' on Showtime when my dad called to tell me the news. The next day, I wrote a class-assigned poem about it which still hangs on my folks' fridge.

Still on the fridge? 20 years = big time.

I know someone who was one of her students. He's still freaked out about it.

We were watching on TV in my elementary school classroom. I think it was 5th grade. Brutal.

All the TV monitors were on at Broken Ground School in Concord, NH. We got sent home early.
Feynman? I knew.
Decent article in Sunday's Glob. (Can't find the link, sorry.)
