In a message dated 01-29-13, Paul Quinn said to Holger Granholm:   
      
   Good morning Paul,   
      
   Anyway it's morning here now.   
      
   PQ>Unfortunately the current day celebrates the English invasion.  A   
   PQ>lot of people want to have it changed to some other date but so far   
   PQ>there has not been an urgent 'push' for a change.  Once we evolve to   
   PQ>the republic that a great majority of Aussies want, then the choice   
   PQ>is simple: the Queen's birthday that we currently also celebrate   
   PQ>(not really; it's just a holiday).   
      
   I thought that OZ already was independent. Probably then NZ is also   
   still in the Great Britain tie.   
      
   PQ>Thank you.  It's drying out here, although the eastern bank of our   
   PQ>river is just 100 metres away, slowly creeping up the street.  I may   
   PQ>have to move my Fido PC upstairs, soon.   
      
   Yes we get the news on TV. I saw this morning a map showing the drenched   
   areas was quite close to your home.   
      
   CU Again,
