Thought for the Day

taerowynToday got me thinking about US History. We all get certain dates drilled into us:
December 7th
June 6th
July 4th
September 11th is going to be a big one
So why not August 6th? I would think that the impact that August 6th had on both US history and humanity itself would make it at least as, if not more, important than all these other dates, but maybe that's just me.

Columbine high school hi-jinks
Oklahoma City bombing
The storming of the Waco compound
Quite possibly Ruby Ridge, but I could be wrong, and besides, it didn't make much news, and...
Hitler's birthday!
