On October 2- 1959- Earth Entered "The Twilight Zone"



F
ifty years ago on this author's 7th birthday- a new television show would change the way this kid- and countless millions of others- would view the unknown.


I was just discovering the terror of tornadoes- just a little over 2 years since the Ruskin Heights disaster.

As I embraced the wonderful world of meteorology- I also embraced this classic program produced by Rod Serling.


This Friday- October 2nd- will be the 50th anniversary of when the first Twilight Zone episode aired on CBS TV.


The cable channel SyFy (KC Time-Warner channel 63) will air a 15-show package of classic Twilight Zones beginning this Friday.
