TIME's Person of the Year - 80's Edition

Does anyone read magazines anymore? Magazines used to be a pretty big deal, and even though print is nearly dead in this digital world, TIME magazine continues to survive. Most notably it's annual "Person of the Year" issue.<br /><br />This week we take a look at the "Person" - sometimes multiple people, sometimes "things" - of each year of the 80's. From Ronald Reagan to Mikhail Gorbachev, the Cold War was a major factor in determining the winners of each year.<br /><br />Technology, climate change, Nobel Peace prize winners are all represented, but the leaders of the US & USSR dominated the decade. And do you remember the "syringe tide"?!<br /><br />Also, sorry in advance - my stupid cough is back - and I also share the sad tale of my depressed dog, and the potential demise of a woman named Linda (you'll have to hear the story for yourself).<br /><br />
