911

Actually quite late in the day to write on this. But got interested after seeing a co-incidence on the TV.

911. What does it remind you of ?

• Most people will be reminded of 9/11 when the planes crashed into the twin towers (sending the ratings of the News channels soaring)
• 911 is the emergency dial no in the US (think of 100, 101, 102 all rolled into one )
• in 1906, Gandhi started the satyagrah movement
• in 1962 , the Beatles recorded their first single "Love me do".
• in 1972, the Munich Summer Olympic ended.
  
• in1954, the Miss America paegent was telecasted live for the first time.
• Birthday of O. Henry
