As a kid in the 60s, I woke up one night to explosions shaking our house. In the next street 6 or 7 cars had been set on fire and exploded, there was a huge fire at the apt. complex on the next street and complete panic. It was never revealed why or how it took place, although there were some groups in the area that were supposed to be members of a certain group, and in one ever came forward or talked about it. It wasn't even in the news, which was really weird. We lived in a quiet University town, right near the campus. It was a huge fire and destroyed a ton of vehicles and buildings, a bug deal, that no one ever solved.... It scared me for years to not know anything about what happened, just that a bomb went off right behind us and caused mass destruction of property. Luckily we didnt lose our house. Really scary and kept me a lifetime insomniac afterward. I still wake up constantly at night, just jumping out of my skin at loud sounds. I've tried everything but I think I'm permanently alarmed for life....

@Angryblonde It was in 1969, I believe, so I didn't watch the news at 8 years old....

@Angryblonde Thank you!!! I grew up right near Stanford University and hospital, in Palo Alto, and Stanford was extremely controlling about their news. In 8th grade a Stanford student who taught a class I took brought in a bootleg copy of the Stanford Prison Experiment. It was unbelievably shocking. Almost no one knew it had even taken place. We were permanently changed by that film. Most of the parents sued the the University, since their kids were permanently traumatized by the experience...

@MatsubaAgeha The Stanford University debacle was not the fire I experienced in my original post, but happened years later. Two separate events years apart....
