  1. I didn't hear anything about the anniversary on the media here. And what an important event this was!

    I had not seen some of those images before. That "tank man" thrown on the tarmac really frightened me.

  2. @Viva: Very little coverage here as well. I don't remember the tank man 20 years ago. His friends save his life!

  3. I remember, it was the beginning of the end.
