50 Years ago today (months after the opening of Disneyland ;)) the Beat Generation was born with the first public reading of Allen Ginsburg's Howl.

Hear the story here on NPR (http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4950578&ft=1&f=1008).

Boy, that's one amazing era that can bring us both Disneyland and Howl - and the Beat Generation.

Interstingly enough, ARMA, my records management professional organization also celebrated it's 50th this year. Who knew the events of 1955 would impact my life so much?
