I agree. (another pre-boomer here, also 1940)

Say, that was a pretty good year, huh?

1940 was one of the best. In many ways, life was a lot better then, probably because everything we knew came via the dial plug-in radio complete with tubes, in the mail, was overheard while listening in on the 12 party telephone line or in weekly newspaper.
