I don't know of a single person who celebrates either one. Most people in this country couldn't tell you within a 50 year span when either of those events happened. They aren't celebrated, unless you're a Texan or something.... And since I don't particularly like that state, I definitely don't celebrate it....

I, on the other hand, do celebrate when Francisco Franco died.... His death opened Spain up to the world....
