QotD: One Additional Holiday
Posted April 20th, 2003 @ 10:51am by Erik J. Barzeski
Question: If you could add a holiday to the calendar, what would it be and why?
My Answer: I would add a silent holiday - a day in which you weren't supposed to talk to anyone, or say much of anything. Radios and televisions would go down for the day, and people could use the time to think, or to read, or to write in their journals (though not weblogs!). A bit unusual, but I think the world would be a little better place if all of us introspected a little more often.

[via Erik] If you could add a holiday to the calendar, what would it be and why? I would add a day for celebrating peace. One would argue that we had many things of the sort, but you look carefully and you see a number of holidays celebrating the results
