Do you remember Aberfan?  I do.  I think it was the first disaster to be covered live on TV which made it all the more horrible.  Today with all the nasty things that are going on, daily it seems, in the world, I think we've become more desensitised but back then I remember just sitting there watching the TV and crying at the sight of those pathetic little bodies being pulled from the slime.  Not something I can ever forget.
