1962 - Baby, it's cold outside

De Gaulle calls for Algerian freedom and
It's granted, despite French reactionaries
Seattle World's Fair, Century 21
Wal-Mart opens, and Marvel Comics - see
Warhol's soup cans, and see At&T's
Telstar, Marilyn's demise, Mandela
Arrested, Jamaica's free, James Bond, he's
Up against Dr No, Silent Spring, The
Beatles say Love Me Do, Himalaya
Battles, India and China, J. Carson's
Tonight Show, Gay Byrne's Late Late Show, a freeze
In the Cold War with missiles in Cuba
Lawrence of Arabia premieres, London
December, the Big Freeze begins - don't sneeze!
