For me it comes down to five choices:

1) April 14, 1865
2) December 7, 1941
3) November 22, 1963
4) October 26, 1985
5) September 11, 2001

Gotta pick number 4.

Too many of the younger people here were either to young to understand what you are talking about or otherwise won't get the cultural reference. Thank goodness that I was born in the 1970s, even if I wish that I was born 50 years earlier.
