((P.S. SOME may recall the frigid temps on this date in 1985. Weather caused reagan's 2d inauguration to be held indoors. I happen to remember because I took a long walk (including across the Mall) as office closed and, P.P.S, gave birth the next day!!!))
'An epic cold wave gripped a good chunk of the eastern US. It was only 7 degrees at the time of the noon ceremony on January 21, 1985, with wind chills that had reached 20 below that morning, that motivated official to move the ceremony indoors to the Capitol Rotunda.Jan 18, 2021'

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
