I remember hearing about it on the AM radio, as I have always been a radio listener. It was in 1991, like they say.

Its all well and good saying you remember so and so died, but in that case they couldnt have done the things the rest of us know they later did. So in each case there would have been a whole plethora of different events consequential on the "earlier" death. The "butterfly effect" .....

Thank you and what you said is spot on: an 'early death' would have triggered a completely different history for South Africa which those with the early death memory should remember too. What happened after Mandela early death? How did he die? who did people vote for instead of him?
Little insignificant things such as the spelling of some bear would not have had an important consequence in the world's history, but the death of the one and only Nelson Mandela certainly would.

As has been posted in another of this ME threads, the big big question to those who remember Mandela dying in prison is: who was the first post-Aparteid president of South Africa?

I have asked a similar question before,
I have read quite a few threads concerning the ME.
I haven't come across any answers, when asked if Mandela died in prison who was President after apartheid came to an end, it gets ignored.
Don't expect an answer, just entertaining that question should make one think how profound the whole concept is and why there isn't so much talk in the ME threads about what happened after and who was voted in.
Entertaining the question and then researching would lead one to answer's where the faulty memory might have occurred and who they may have mistaken with Mandela and who actually did die around the time they thought Mandela did.
