Don't have an answer, but maybe I can add some fuel to the think tank. 30 years ago was 1979 (or 1980 if the reunion is next year). What was going on, then? (Jimmy Carter was president, the American Embassy in Tehran was taken over, ...) What did we wear? (At my college, getting a pair of those Canadian jeans with the hugely flaired legs was a big deal.) Music? (Disco fading, New Wave growing, rock-a-billy-- how many times did you hear 'Amy, what you want to do?' coming from someone's dorm room or one of the frats?) If you graduated from high school in 1979 you are now 47 or 48 (give or take). What do people in our age group like? Haha- well, the business card magnifiers for the over 40 eyes would probably be popular, in spite of the reminder of our age. Pill boxes? C'mon, Grace, we're not there just yet! I think Rubik's cube didn't come out until the early 80's but it would still be relevant to this age group.
Have I sparked anyone's memory?
