I'm loathe to join in this forum 'cause I don't want to admit that I'm aged but, remember when it cost $3:00 to fill the tank ( 10 gallons / 45 ltrs ) of the EH Holden, a meat pie was 1 shilling,the 1st TV in '57, a 15" Stromberg Carlsen that was 200 pounds,a few months wages. Listening to the Smoky Dawson radio serials ( before TV ) or being out in the streets with the rest of the population of Sydney watching the first Russian Sputnick pass overhead in Oct. 4th '57, the beginnings of my interest in astronomy.
