|comment= Fascinating. It just shows how fleeting the iconic things really are (I get it in space all the time when switching from British/Anglo-American to POlish/Middle Euriopean circles; but this was a bit surprisng example of a time effect: despite being a foreigner, and not here at the time, I still know about Greenham Common - I even remember that the first time I have ehard of it was actually in an Adrian Mole book...I had to look it up :-).
Possibly, Greenham Common has a pop-culture jinx on it, as I recall another utterly, terribly dreadful book with references to it, Ben Elton's "Blast from the Past".
