At the beginning of what all but a few diehard pedants agree is a new decade, a lot of people are getting reflective about where they were ten years ago. Reflections range from the trivial to the profound. Some of mine:
- I had just been made redundant in the aftermath of a failed merger, the ultimate fallout of which was to see the CEO jailed for stock fraud.
- I was wishing people a Happy New Year on CompuServe rather than on Twitter and Facebook
- I had never heard of a prog-rock band called Mostly Autumn.
