Happy New Year to everyone at Head-Fi! Many of us have friends here that we've never met but value throughout each year. Some of us seek advice, share our experiences, play games, and/or simply converse with our friends throughout the world. So all the best in the New Year and beyond for you and yours. With each new year we look back at the year that has passed. I'm wondering what you would rate as the top "news story" of 2009. Was it the economy, the plane that landed safely on the Hudson River, the death of Michael Jackson, Oprah's retirement

, the inauguration of Barack O'Bama, Tiger Woods, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, North Korea, or Jon & Kate

? Maybe it was a local story or a personal memory. Share your thoughts if you feel inclined to share...Happy 2010!

I did not post my original post because I was concerned about being the first to post a Happy New Year message, or to aggravate people, that are concerned about such things, with my "absurdly large signature." I did not intend to limit discussion exclusively to American stories (as I believe my original post indicates...) I was simply attempting to elicit some comments about the rapidly waning year. Some of us tend to reflect on the year as it winds down after Christmas. Some of us reflect on the year on the last day of the year or perhaps during its last hour, minutes, or seconds. I'm sure that many people only reflect on the past year once the new year has begun. Some of us don't have the attention span to reflect at all. After you've flamed my timing, my signature, and my perceived nationalism, perhaps you have some thoughts on our past year?

Everything but Jon & Kate (who?) and Oprah.
