Happy Holidays!

Happy Earth Day, March 20, and Spring Equinox, March 21, 00:07 UT. We in Japan are fortunate to have a national holiday for equinox. Be sure to display your Earth Flag proudly. No nationalist rags now, please.

Update 2007-05-10: Wow. I didn't know this (from Wikipedia):

Earth Day is a name used for two different observances, both held annually during spring in the northern hemisphere. These are intended to inspire awareness of and appreciation for the Earth's environment. The United Nations celebrates Earth Day each year on the vernal (March) equinox; while a global observance in many countries is held each year on April 22.
