That is why it's now referred to, by all historians, as "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_1968_in_France" target="_blank">Mai 68</a>". It's been 40 years now and "those who've done it" (called "<span style="font-style: italic;">Les Soixantehuitards</span>") dream of a repeat in memory of their youth! All what's coming, though, are... anniversaries.
