Surely you mean 189.6? That was my first thought when I read about the Magdalena Asylums. How in the hell could this be going on at the end of the 21st century? When there had been free love and Elvis and the Beatles and birth control? I even did my own research and - to my complete dismay - discovered that your original time frame was correct. I'm so outraged I don't even know what else to say.
