I know--you'd think they'd need wires to do that, but it's clearly just them.
I grew up in the late 40's and early 50's. Actually, my experience was that it was very scary--the Korean war, the threat of nuclear war, polio, getting pregnant--all those things seem on the verge of happening all the time, and our parents were just a few years out of their own youth during the Depression, and worried constantly that prosperity would vanish. My son sees it as a hopeful time, too, but at least for me and my friends, it was a little different.
