And when did it become customary to mark such periods anyway? Did anyone think the passing of exactly one month after the assasination of the Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo, Hitler's invasion of Poland, the dropping of the atom bomb, or the first human landing on the moon worthy of public notice? Is this just an example of the media being desperate for anything to fill those 24 hours of news programmes? [/old fogey rant]
