  3. Billy: Charlotte had a large number of neighborhood malls, and while many of them have gone out of business, they were well documented.

    Didi: Ah, the days before inflation! LOL

  5. I've heard the Seventies weren't all they were cracked up to be. We may have done just as well in our own era.

  6. Historically the 70s (nor anytime really) were that great. But culturally they may have been. Then again maybe not. I did miss the golden days of disco and I am not sad about that.
