greetings with my postings (not only Administrativa ones) whenever I am
personally aware of such holidays on those days or just in the offing.
As other Lowlanders will confirm, over the years I have been doing so
with Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Baha'i, Persian/Kurdish (Nowruz), Hindu,
Buddhist, Celtic and Wicca holidays.<br>

so, why not also Parsi and Sikh holidays ! (just joking... and
being here in India, my feeling is: the more religions the better... esp
if they bring an extra (official) holiday or two with them! ...)<br>

often we honor swagger and bluster and wielders of force; too often we
excuse those who are willing to build their own lives on the shattered
dreams of others. ... [T]here is another kind of violence, slower but
just as deadly destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is
the violence of institutions; indifference and inaction and slow
decay." (Bobby Kennedy, 5 April 1968)<br><br>----------</span></p><p>From: <span class="gI"><span class="gD" style="color:#790619">Tomás Ó Cárthaigh</span> <span class="go"><a href="mailto:tomasocarthaigh@yahoo.com">tomasocarthaigh@yahoo.com</a></span></span><br>

responsible for the likes of 911, no more than all Christians are
responsible for the Oslo tragedy. It should not be an issue.<br><br>On a
side note, to keep up with whats on for holidays Ron, the Wikipedia
would be an invaluable help. Look on its main page on the day of
posting... balabing... the anniversaries and events for that day are
there.<br><br>Tomas<br><p><strong><font color="#668f5a">"a person with a good book is never alone... a writer until they've written one is never at peace"</font></strong><br></p><br></div></div></div><div style="text-align:center">
