Does the date 'November 12th 1955' have any relevance to anything significant in history? A great deal is made of this date during the first two films. Or is it just a random date?

One Dr Samuels of the Church of the New Birth received a revelation from Jesus: Spiritualism causes stagnation of the soul.

Fred Hutchinson replaced Harry Walker as manager of baseball's St Louis Cardinals.

It was Neil Young's 10th birthday.

My preferred reason: Eight days later -- on 20th November -- Elvis left Sun Records for RCA. Many people (well, me) trace the decline of Western civilisation to that very moment -- so they were returning to a more innocent time ;-)
