I agree with the article about putting the atomic bombing of Japan at the top of their list. The bombing was a turnpoint in history. The bomb brought the war to an end. Although many innocent people died because of the bomb some lives were saved.Some people survived but were greatly affected by the bomb. The radiations from the bomb caused babies to be born with deformities and some people developed sicknesses.
A bigger story would be Sept, 11th when the World Trade Center was destroyed. The entire country was affect by that. Thousands of people died and also developed diseases just like what happened after the bombing.
After reading the article, I would switch #2 and #3 because the attack on Pearl Harbor was alot more important that the first man on moon to me. Also I think AIDS should be moved up to #2 because this disease is something major and still exist. Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech should also be moved up instead of being #50 because the Civil Rights march brought freedom to many African Americans in America today.
