Re: 20th Century Events.
Spitting Feathers ... was just doing list and lost it ... grrr.
Basically, what's left is:
4, 11,16 (this not very clear, may put another image up), 19, 21, 23,27,33.
Sorry re. quality ... even if I try to enlarge through Paint Shop ....it doesn't make any difference.
Best way is to enlarge as instructed, then enlarge again by pressing Ctrl and turning the wheel on your mouse away from you, or using the tools option.
Off to put the list in word, so only need to copy/paste >>>>>>>>

Re: 20th Century Events.
It was one that I couldn't quite make out, but once you had said Retlaw should know it...well, that clinched it.

Thanks Kate, that does give a much clearer enlarged pic than the one I was getting. Didn't know you could do that with Ctrl/mouse wheel.
So 4 is not Bikini either?
