Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar
At 8 p.m. I lay down on La Clenega Boulevard and was covered completely with a canvas tarpaulin. Two fifteen- minute flares were placed near me to alert cars. Just before the flares extinguished, a police car arrived. I was arrested and booked for causing a false emergency to be reported. Trial took place in Beverly Hills. After three days of deliberation, the jury failed to reach to decision, and the judge dismissed the case.
(12 November 1972)
There are 3359 births, 3910 deaths, 1122 murders, 494 disasters and 2071 other events about 5713 people in 6416 places until today.
