The title is a phrase that Lincoln used to describe the effects of time passing on an event - it came to mind when I saw this little graphic next to a story I was reading:

Seeing the "70 years ago today" made me realize just how remote the events leading up to WWII are to kids my daughter's (high school) age are. When I was her age, in 1976, the events of 1914 (leading up to WWI) seemed to be an eternity in the past - but they were closer than 1938 is to today.
