We have discovered in the past few days that, according to the nephews (mostly Xzavier), "the '70s" encompasses all of history prior to the time when they were born. The other day something came up regarding World War II, and one of the nephews responded with, "When was that... the '70s?"

An aside before I begin: I got a paid account today and was surprised and pleased to discover that they apparently gave me loyalty icons even though this is the first time I've had a paid account since I started with LJ in 2000.

The background is from here but I may change it if I can find something I like better. I still need to make new icons - I may do that in the next few minutes.
