Of course, SARS was 30 years later...

To get some perspective, 1981 was as close to 2013 as it was to 1949.

Edit: Yes, I meant 2013, thanks. Point being: I remember the mid (not early) 80's and it SEEMS so recent and modern but it's as far removed from our life today as 1950's life was then.

This made me feel really old, so I checked your math:

  2003 1981 - p
  22
  1981 1949 - p
  32

I think you mean 2013.
