The New York Times talks to a number of snappers who were at Tiananmen Square 20 years ago and captured one of the most iconic moments of the 20th century.

Jason, it's really confusing you having a different name for every forum you visit. I mean, Elian, MacPheasto and Rubicon? Where's the connection? :D

Even though I am the forum idiot/prankster I really honestly don't know what it's all about. Would anyone care to enlighten me, (via PM if this is a sensitive subject)

It's not sensitive, but you may have been unaware of it when it happened, being a youngster at the time. ;)

Do the words Tian An Men Square mean anything? It was 20 years ago this year.

Lo! Tank Man.

I knew about that, I was commenting on the different user names that rubicon uses in different forums.

Did I pass the test? ;)

Just to clarify, when I said sensitive I didn't know if something had happened on the forums that I wasn't aware of, such as an argumentation* or similar.

* Damned predictive text! :lol:

My apologies, I didn't expect it to cause a stir!

Sometimes a change is as good as a holiday and all that.
