Getting ideas for articles I

Museums are always stimulating places; every time I visit one, I come away with ideas for articles. In this newish museum, I discovered that Taiwan's first public bus service was launched in January 1913. Guess what subject I'll be pitching to editors shortly, as they begin to make plans for the end of this year and the beginning of next year?

It's said that anniversaries make for lazy journalists. It's true, in a way - but editors and readers seem to like anniversaries, so make a point of what happened in history 100 or even 500 years ago.
