As a follow up to my
blog article on 2009 anniversaries, I should point out a few anniversaries that I missed at the time.
- 50th anniversary of the Day the Music Died. While the anniversary, strictly speaking, memorializes the day Buddy Holly was killed in a plane crash, some say that it was the beginning of the end of early rock and roll.
- 50th anniversary of statehood for Hawaii.
- 50th anniversary of statehood for Alaska.
- 30th anniversary of the Iranian Revolution.
- 25th anniversary of overcoming the Orwellian destiny foretold in Nineteen Eighty-Four. Or did we?
