Yeah or you know our memories suck anyways. As proof the masses forget every "major" event almost immediately.

Ummm, sounds like something is wrong. No way the government can gas light entire days away. Put down your tin foil.

Happened to me today. I found out John Hurt died but I could have sworn he died last year.

I stopped watching after I heard him say:

8:32 PM was 1832 (it's 2032)

He pronounced Greenwich as green-witch .
