On This Date May 23: A Unique Glimpse at What ELSE Happened on YOUR DAY

Here's a chance for anyone with a birthday on May 23 to view a very special slice of the past...the events that occurred over the past two millennia on that exact day of the year. How many times did something that happened on May 23 nudge the path of history in a different direction from that moment forward? Some were born, some died, ships sailed and ships sank, music was composed, technology totally changed the way we communicated, wars were won (or lost, depending upon one's viewpoint), and weather events changed the face of the earth. And then there are the little things that amaze and inspire us to achievement, like when on May 23, 1999 Gerry Bloch, at age 81, became the oldest climber to scale El Capitan in Yosemite National Park. He broke his own record that he set in 1986 when he was 68 years old. A booklet is being produced for each day of the year which will be updated annually.
