EternalDivide 02/15/18 2:54:54 AM #27:	Specifically as it happened live? The Berlin Wall coming down. As just a big news thing in general? Challenger. While I really want to say I remember it on the day it happened. I could simply be remembering it as a thing in the following days/weeks. I mean I do remember it being endlessly replayed and talked about on tv since my grandparents had the news on all the time. And I vividly remember taking part in Hands Across America and that was only a few months later so there's no reason to think my memory of it isn't from the day of. I'm just not 100% sure. But I do remember my aunt talking all about how her work was freaking out because they supplied parts for the shuttle program and there was already the concern that something of theirs may have played a part in it. --- FFVII Remake: A disaster in the making.
