Given that some of your answers have a UK flavor to them, I'm guessing the answer is the Dunblane Massacre. Here's a Guardian overview of the Mar, 1996 tragedy: http://212.187.153.33/1990-1999/Story/0,6051,112749,00.html And, a Wikipedia (free web-based encyclopedia) http://www.wikipedia.com/wiki/Dunblane+Massacre This sure seems to be one of the most major news stories from that year. Hope this helps! Asking-GA |

Could you give us a few examples of typical clues and answers from other years, so that we can get a feel for what the quiz is like? |

Could this be a reference to the creation of a DMZ (demilitarized zone) in Korea? |

You have conflicting information postes. Is it 1966, or 1996? |
