… commemorates the day when the Soviet Union ended its occupation, and a constitutional law of perpetual Austrian neutrality was in-acted and it’s also the 299th day (according to the Gregorian calendar).This would mean that we have 66 days left of 2009.

In year 740 the earthquake strikes Constantinople, causing a lot of death and damages and in 1861 the Pony Express ended it’s operation  of fast mail service crossing the North American continent.  1905 Norway became independent of Sweden and Pan American Airways makes the first commercial flight of the Boeing 707 from New York City to Paris, France. The Beatles are appointed Members of the Order of the British Empire (MBEs) in 1965 and 1994 Jordan and Israel sign a peace treaty. What will the history book tell us about the 26th October 2009 years from now, or will the major development in history still be when the world for the first time saw the far side of the moon in 1959 or when Churchill won the general election in 1951?

I guess we will have to wait and see, some of us will be alive to witness it and be part of making history..

So long -  tomorrow is another day
