[meteorite-list] OT: Happy Bastille Day

[mark ford]

Hi Sterling,

... Of course here in the UK, today is St Swithern's day, where
tradition has it that if it rains today then it will be bad weather for
40 days and nights. There is a tiny element of truth to this as at this
time of year weather tends to hang around for longer periods...

.. Another useless fact!


Best
Mark

Hi,

    To the French members of The List, now that the pesky rotation of
the planet has ended it in France, a belated Bastille Day greeting.
    Our European members frequently extend national holiday greetings to
the USA, so I'm trying to return the favor.
    As for the United Kingdom, as soon as I figure out what Guy Fauwkes
Day and Boxing Day ARE, I'll be ready to do the same for them...
