:-( (mortified frownee). I did it again. Dollard Day or happy birthday to
dead Queen Victoria takes place *this* Monday, not in June. Just think of
all the people around the world I've misled with my sig file. We are not
amused.
I'm mailing this to the two lists I subscribe to retract this slight to
our national calendar and to set the record straight. And I'd better not
tell you when St. Jean Baptiste Day (aka the Fete Nationale) is.
