A Database Revelation

Although I’ve use the databases frequently, I’ve limited my experiences to Morningstar and Infotrac. Today I looked at the New York Times historical database, and I learned that on the day I was born the country was making sacrifices for the war effort. For example, milk would now have to be delivered only every other day instead of every day; this would save on gas and tires. In addition, construction was no longer allowed for amusement parks, movie theaters, race tracks or other non-essential projects. What a history lesson.

This would be a fun exercise to do with my grandsons when I go to see them next week.

Thanks Great 8 folks.
