You must have had some good times back then in the 70s.
Yes and no. It was a time of rebellion and a time of economic disaster for India. Shortages of everything. Rampant black markets, socialist / communists living in pedder rd. preaching to the masses, naxalites, wild music, long hair, bell bottoms, homemade telescopes with bamboo tripod, water on mars, garibi hatao and tons of govt. sponsored shit in the press, one komplet tv channel, Transistor radios and IFTs, JETKING TRANSISTOR RADIO, cassette recorder, transistor beeper, morse code beeper, op amp Fairchild ua741 @ Rs.11/-, first handmade pcb which was inverted and hence first SMT pcb, LCD calculator (my dad's which i screwed up and managed to repair), Power amps, SMPS.....
The first Freedom Movement post independence. It's only fair that you are part of the free movement of the 90s.
Not to be outdone I have to say that in 1984 when I was a kid of 8.5 we got an early off from school to catch Rakesh Sharma's live telecast from the salyut. Ok so who here was a KID in the 90s and knows Micheal Jackson as the most controversial white musician of the decade?
