If you don't like knickers, fine. I am not emotionally involved in that issue. As a teacher, however, I have an annoying penchant for accuracy.

As for a sense of history, I find that many people consider 50 years ago, 75 years ago and 100 years ago to be a long time. Those with a sense of history realize that they are not.
As a highly educated individual I feel that sense of history should usually be determined by the age of the subject being discussed. It's not as if we are dealing with the history of music or religion.
