<< To All Non-U.S. Citizens on this list,

I, for one, would like to invite you to celebrate your Venezuelan, New 
Zealander,
Australian, Chinese, Canadian, South African, Spanish, Croatian, Belgian, 
Swiss,
French, and all other patriotic holidays on this list, so the rest of us may
enjoy them the way you must be enjoying this thread.

Paul since you did not make the same, or similar, comments when Cinco de Mayo 
or Canada Day were spoken of on this list I wonder why you find it needful to 
do so now?

I'd say "God Bless America" except someone would say that religion has no 
place on the list............. and that bless was blasphemous......... and 
then that saying America was being a fanatic patriot............. so I will 
say only that I hope each and everyone on the list gets just as much from 
this country as they put into it...or don't.
 As for the listees that live outside the U.S........ they are certainly 
welcome to share their heritage/important dates with us at any time without 
anyone's specific invitation to do so.
