Most important event of the last 10 years

[focusonme]

Yeah, obviously, it's 9/11 and everything that's followed from that.

Or the internet.

But they're cliched responses. Anyone got anything a little out of left field, a little different, that can still be argued as being hugely important? I'm a tad stuck for ideas.

Perfect answer! How else would the world's problems be solved

[scared but happy]

Do you know that has really made me think.
Without going for the obvious death of Diana, Labour landslide.
Ohhh I will come back to you on this one.

Yes and you don't want to go there!!

HAS to be the roll-out of the internet .

( without which Pistonheads would not exist)

[hugoagogo]

the advent of the internet, and the ease of access to vast amounts of hardcore filth that that has brought about

Great answer

Typisch. Ask a serious question and get one thoughtful but useless answer, and eight people trying to be funny.

So I posted this and then watched the last episode of Blackadder, and ended up, inevitably, feeling all inspired and arguing that it was 9/11, but from a more thoughtful viewpoint than I probably otherwise would've done.

But cheers for the help anyway.
