It took the efforts of only one woman to get Mother's Day recognized. One letter to your congressmember represents the opinions of a hundred people, and the pen is mightier than the sword. Americans, bring forth your weapons and write! Blessed be, Baha It isn't an official holiday but I believe it is being referred to as Patriot's Day. I'm with you on this one. For those in the U.S., please write your representatives and congressmen, folks. Can't cost more than a postage stamp (or email, which, last time I checked, didn't require a stamp heheh) Jill (who lost 295 colleages in that tragedy, 30 of whom she knew/worked with personally before they transferred to NYC. One man I still talk with regularly survived simply because he overslept that Tuesday morning.)

Can't cost more than a postage stamp (or email, which, last time I checked, didn't require a stamp heheh) A little confusing, but there already is a Patriot's Day, a big holiday here that commemorates the battles at Lexington and Concord. It's a day of battle recreations, fairs, and parades. |

Jeanne Hedge, as directed by Natasha It doesn't just celebrate the battles of Lexington and Concord. It celebrates the beginning of the American Revolution. Patriot's Day should remain that, too. And let Sept 11 stand alone as its own day. LT |
