I knew the answers to that, because I was the oldest niece, as I had aunts and uncles very close to my age, as my mother and father were both the oldest in their large families, well anyway, I will always remember them all gathering in the road and me watching the girls, including some of my aunts taking off their bras right there in the street as the guys lit their draft cards and put them in the girls bras and starting a fire right there in the middle of the street!
