HB...a friend sent it to me via email.
However, after checking Snopes (
http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/trivia/1955comments.asp) I found that all statements were not accurate. For example, postage was only 3 cents in 1955, some baseball players were already earning more than the President, there were already drive in restaurants, etc.
But, I still find it interesting to read.
