Despite recent developments, such as video games or electronic toys, there are 7 toys that have remained a constant, throughout the years, in capturing a child’s imagination and offering hours of entertainment.
1) Hula hoop
The Hula hoop has emerged again after its popularity explosion in the late 1950′s. Today, hula spinners add ribbons to their hoops to enhance the visual experience with a bit of colour. Other additions include glow-in-the dark, sparkling, or even tape with patterns. The hoops themselves can be clear, filled with glitter or even water, all with the intention to catch the eye of the spectator.

Everyone knows it’s slinky – especially children. Slinky has been popular for over 60 years and still slides down stairs, alone or in pairs. When it was first introduced it was made of metal.

This wouldn’t be complete without reference to Roswell. I don’t wish to say too much about the Roswell, N.M. case (July 1947), other than to point out that the then US Army Air Force admitted publicly, in the media, in newspapers, on radio, that they had captured one of those mysterious (and only recently sighted – the modern UFO era was just weeks old) flying discs. No amount of back-pedalling can alter that now historical fact. It’s on the record. Look it up yourself!
I’m in a bit of a quandary about which UFO era is the best for mining. Ordinarily I’d say the earlier the better in that contamination is limited or reduced. Thus, the first (or close to the first) visual sighting or the first (or near first) physical trace case or the first (or second or third) this or that. Alas, that means going back to say the first five to ten years of the modern era – 1947-1957. Witnesses and associated evidence has been diminished over the interval between then and now, even if original documentation still exists. Latter eras are better, but recent cases have a greater chance of having been influenced by what has come before. All else being equal, I’d mine those first ten years, but that’s me.
Do I have the smoking gun? No, otherwise I’d be booking my flight to Stockholm to receive the Nobel Prize! Does the smoking gun exist in the raw unknowns’ data? I don’t know, but it doesn’t hurt for it to be combed through again.
