History (1991)

Today's cartoon is another cartoon from 1991.

Mr. Shuldig (my alter ego) sensed that 1991 was an important turning point in world history. What he, and I, did not know was that in a few days there'd be war, that we'd be responding to air raid sirens, wearing gas masks, sitting in rooms sealed with plastic sheeting, and watching missile attacks on our cities as reported live on TV!

And yet here we are twenty years later, in 2011. We did live through it, and as Mr. Shuldig predicted, we are looking back at an "interesting period of history".
