First of all, I missed the Caps Penguins game last night but would highly recommend watching the highlights here. Two hat tricks?! So exciting.

In class yesterday one of the students gave a presentation and said that the Jewish Holocaust was the most important moment in the 20th Century.
I really disagree with this statement. Certainly it is an important moment, but not THE penultimate moment. But then it got me thinking, what do i think the most important moment of the 20th Century is?
I am sure my bias is showing but, I think landing on the moon is the most important moment. We left the fucking planet in 1969. LEFT THE PLANET!! I mean, really think about that. Cases could be made for the invention of the microchip, or the first use of the atomic bomb.
Thoughts?

I'm with you on this one, bird. Course, I got to watch it live, in very grainy, herky-jerky black and white. But I saw it.
