SideLines: Celebrating what never happened
It almost sounds like an episode of “Seinfeld,” but it was much more serious.
It will be 50 years ago next week that something didn’t happen. Had it occurred, it would have been so horrific, the world we live in today would be very different. Instead of reading this column in a newspaper or online, you may have had to find it painted on the wall of a cave or the side of a burned-out building.
I am, of course, referring to the Cuban Missile Crisis.
