1572, a year to remember
When we moved into GeoCities we had to find a
suitable address. The word "beatnik" came up in
the description of SoHo, so we went for it! But which
actual number would agree with us?
For that, we looked to the Western Civ history book.
1572 was the year of the St. Bartholemew's Day massacre
in France, where bloodshed broke out amongst
Christians (no surprise!); apparently Catholics were
murdering non-Catholics for some reason that surely
seemed really important at the time...
Let us officially state, we in no way condone nor
recommend religious violence!
Just trying to teach a little history...also if you
add all the numbers up, 1+5+7+2=15, 1+5=6, you get 6,
which is half a dozen, like the number of kids in the
Brady household if you don't count when Oliver visited,
so this is probably symbolic of a tv-viewing American
childhood.
Or not.
