    Hi Guys - A friend of mine would like to know what kind of watch an aviator would have worn and used during the 1919 - 1939 era. He doubts if a pocket watch would have been an option, but he's not sure about that. Any info on makes and models would be most appreciated. Thanks. Jupiter

    What would you change?

    I've sure enjoyed the "What could you do without?" thread... and it has me thinking of what I would _change_... say, if somebody made me King (Dictator, God?) for a few days... I think I'd make the national speed limit 40 mph. All cars would have governors on the engines that would keep them...

    Hi Folks - Anyone here ever watch the great old British television series "All Creatures Great and Small?" It's about a country veterinarian in the 1930s, and was based on the best-selling semi-autobiographical books by James Herriot. The first three years of the show are the most satisfying...
