To oldish users on gfy - coldwar question - time for a history lesson on gfy.
To old users of gfy- hello. I was thinking about the coldwar today, unfortunitley i never knew of it, because i was 2 years old when the berlin wall collapsed and thus wasnt old enough to know anything about it.
but the real question and analysis I want to know from the "average" american living at the time is: when there was a nucleor crisis, you know the cuban missile crisis and how president Regan(i think) was arguing with his russian counter part and the world was on a brink of nucleor war.
I want to know what your feelings were; were you scared? what type of mood were u in, were you thinking this will never happen. did you have access to this information.
because I asked my parents and my mum had no idea really what was going on because of the lack of media at the time and how her parents kept her away from the tv and radio. So she didnt really know what was going on, even though she knew there was a crisis. my dad was also like this.
but u being americans and actully being on the side of one of the fighters, how did you feel at this crucial time in what could have potentially been the near end of the world.
