When was this?

I definitely know that it wasn't Switzerland

I guess there it was about 1978? I don't know for sure...

in Austria it was 1919 I think... in the US 1921 I think... so, when it was in New zealand?

The netherlands 1919 as well. But hey, thanks for massive spam in a serious threat. So now put your energy in being constructive!
