It was 1981, or the day that Ronald Reagan became the 40th president of the US. He succeeded President Carter who served one term.
Do you remember what you were doing that sunny January day in 1981?
I was driving some colleagues between Saltillo and Monterrey in the north of Mexico. It was an isolated road but ideal for picking up the ceremony and speech over WOAI-AM of San Antonio, Texas. It came in clearly in our car radio!
Later, we got to the hotel in Saltillo and heard that the Iran hostages had been released.
Quite a morning, from the new president to the release of the hostages.
