I could dig up at least a dozen character sheets from the 80's where I could disagree with you.  ?  I swear to you, I could add up a column of numbers three times and get four different results!  

Cleveland now has BABY SNOW LEOPARDS~!!!!
 

At Crosley Field, the era of nighttime baseball begins on this day (well, night) in 1935.  Twenty-five thousand fans watch the Reds beat the Phillies 2-1 in the first Major League game ever played under the lights.  During the pre-game ceremonies, President Franklin D. Roosevelt pushes a button at the White House to illuminate the field.

The PEPCON disaster in Henderson, NV was 30 years ago today. After the Challenger disaster in 1986, there was a government direcive to store excess ammonium perchlorate onsite, an oxidizer used in the solid rocket boosters. An estimated 4500 metric tons was onsite, and part of the explosions. The more powerful explosion was rated at 1 kiloton of TNT, and caused damage as far away as the Las Vegas Strip. Next door to PEPCON was the Kidd Marshmallow Factory, which was destroyed by the blasts. In the aftermath, videos taken of the desert around the plants were littered with bits of burnt marshmallow fluff, and some reporters commented on the smell of pallets of marshmallows still burning after the initial blasts.
 
I was on the third floor of the old library building on campus several miles away when the blast hit, and several of us were right up against a south-east facing glass curtain wall when the first blast hit. We rode out undulations in the floor for several seconds. Upon watching the second plume rise, a chemistry major friend started calculating under his breath, and announced that we should move away from the windows now. The second blast caused the flooring to undulate again, and this time we could watch the glass curtain wall twist from the force.
