Black Tuesday denotes the crash of the U.S. stock market in 1929 that started the Great Depression. There was a recession in the late 80s, but it was far from a depression.
At the college where I work, every student receives a laptop from the school. During the 2 hour instructional workshop on how to care for/use the notebook (as well as set up p.w.s etc.) that I was teaching I said, "It is very important to keep all liquids away from you laptop. This includes soda, water, beer, and hard liquor." Literally as I said this, someone threw up right on their keyboard and their computer fried. Without missing a beat, I said, "It is also inadvisable to spill recycled soda, water, beer or hard liquor on your computer as this young lady demonstrated."
