Smells Like Teen History

It seems like just yesterday when people said the Soviet Union would never fall because it was just too powerful.

It seems like just yesterday when people said South African whites would never agree to majority rule without a bloody revolution.

It seems like just yesterday when people said it was stupid to expect PAN candidates to win over the PRI in Mexico due to that country's rampant government corruption.

Of course, it has been said that the one thing we learn from history is that we never ever learn from history...
