Correct - Orson Welles dramatisation read as a news story supposedly caused panic.

I'm just making a brief cameo (for today) so to speak. Not ready to return full time yet...still doing pretty crappy on so many levels.

Anyway.....here is your question for today:

How many people were actually burned at the stake for being witches in Salem, MA? (okay, it's a bit late for this question, but it's still sort of timely...ha ha ha!)

I am pretty sure that the answer is none at all.

You are correct sir. In Salem, MA, 19 were HANGED for the crime of witchcraft. Also, one gentleman was killed during interrogation, he was crushed to death because he refused to confess to the crime of witchcraft.


And with that, I turn the thread back to your capable hands for a little while longer.

On this day in 1957, Sputnik 2 was launched by the USSR. It was the first man made satellite to launch an animal into space.
What animal was it and what was it's name?

Today is best known for the "Gunpowder Plot" and Guy Fawkes, however, it is also the day that a famous activist in South Africa was released from Robben Island Prison in 1987 having been sentenced to life for treason. Who was this activist?
