yes, that is correct, I grew up in the 1970's and loved watching the repeats. Did you?

[gills4thrills]

Haha! Did you really? OMG! Life seemed so much better in those days

@gills4thrills What music was that you were playing with this video

[gills4thrills]

@Spits0985 - it's the theme tune for the 1960's tv show (& repeats in 1970's) called 'The Avengers'

[gills4thrills]

thanks very much! Glad you enjoyed it

I agree George - best decade by a long way! Check out some of my other videos on the 1970's theme......you'll be transported back in time to the golden age

I really wish i was alive in the 1970s and 80s in america, those times are my favorite because of the fashion and "Groovy" stuff. everyone back in those days were so cool because of the cars, i also really like everyone back there because there was practically NO law. i was born in america in the 21st century, and i think the fashion these days are just remakes of the 70s and 80s fashion and with actual laws. if only there was such things as time machines.

@tutorturtle Stop embarassing yourself. You didn't mention one individual who actually ran the project, their positions and which universities were involved. Nor did you state any of the individuals who contributed threads. The development of ARPANET was a collaboration of universities, corporate expertise and the government. Ken Oslon, may have contributed to the project, but no he is not among them. If your truly interest in the development of ARPANET, start with J.C.R. Licklider.

@tutorturtle I knew you weren't going to know them. That because those who lived in the U.S.A. back in the 70s then would know all of them. You didn't answer any of my questions. I'll give just a few just to prove the point. Woolco and Kroger. I know many things from the 70s that aren't in any website or in any book. You shopped at a drift store. I used very cheap sport tennis shoes in grade school, they were very common throughout the U.S. I'll bet you can't describe them to me?

@chroniclerofthe70s You are providing nothing. This is a one way discussion, that ends here.

[tutorturtle]

@chroniclerofthe70s most people live in the country??? which country? yeah I work in the city, where most people live. you're not providing evidence you experienced "stagflation", or you owned any of the horrible Americans cars, & tv's, stand in a gas line for hours? owned a car that wouldn't run on unleaded gas? how many people you know lost their mill jobs? there where tens of millions who did. Everything you say and mostly what you don't, tell me you weren't there.

[chroniclerofthe70s]

@tutorturtle I bet you all of your possessions that I did. So you lived in the 70s. Alright, name a national grocery chain store that existed through the entire 70s that no longer exists today? Name a national chain clothing and materials store that no longer is in business? Name a national chain sports store from the 70s that is no longer in business? I bought items in these stores throughout the 70s. If you lived the 70s you should know these. There were several but any one of them will do.

@chroniclerofthe70s I work for the university that developed darpanet, these gents were mostly retired by the time I started, but Ken Olson of DEC was one, and he's also long out of the game these days. I would be long retired myself, had I been senior staff in the mid-60's.

[chroniclerofthe70s]

@tutorturtle I was a kid and a teenager in the 70s. You must have lived in some city because you definitely didn't live out in the country where a majority of the population lived and still does. What one makes a claim as to what a period of time was like, anecdotal evidence which is what you presented is meaningless except to those individuals. You worked on the ARPANET project and you have no grasp of freshmen level statistics, that's laughable.

[chroniclerofthe70s]

@tutorturtle Oh really, then name the individuals who developed the different threads and who were the main individuals who ran the project?

[tutorturtle]

Respond to this video...I don't believe you were around back then, I think you merely digested statistics. I lived the 70's, I was working to feed a family during those difficult times, you giving me crap about my life not fitting your statistical model tells me you're the one who's full of it. A professor once told me "Don't surround yourself with textbooks so high you can't see around them" You can't see the forest for the pulp. '
