You are technically correct - the subject line is definitely in error. But I don't see any intent by BB to belittle the scope of the 2003 blackout. It was just slightly sloppy writing, which we all do here from time to time.I am the same age. I consider the 1965 blackout to be of neither greater or lesser historical importance than the 2003 blackout. I would consider the 1977 one of greater importance actually, even though it had lessser scope, because it had greater social impact. I also think R36's attempt at addressing the defect in BB's title (if that in fact was his point) was subtle enough to be easily misunderstood. |
