I was going to say-- given your expertise on the subject-- Che's "official" birthday of June 14th.
Unfortunately it's an even more somber anniversary.

Not bad Mr. Stone. I would have put that one in the G forum, not terrorism. Our friend the gum mechanic jumped the gun seems....we'll forgive him this time.
Also, I don't believe you checked the calendar before replying, did you?

True. Attention to detail-- duly noted
I did but it was a crap calender and didn't show anything so I went with my gut instinct and grabbed a book on Che I have hence the birthday. But I take your point-- I should have taken the time to walk downstairs and look at one of the better calenders I have. Once again, duly noted.

A friend of mine and his pregnant wife were on that flight. Pretty harrowing for them they as they were not sitting together, eventually they released her and hung onto him.
