Hit JanC: Thanks for trivia…but whatever happened to Lincoln? Didn’t we used to have two holidays…Washington’s b.d. (2/22) and Lincoln’s b.d. (2/12)? A little research did find that the government is currently taking the position you stated…but there is some controversy. As one article stated, Of course the official federal designation doesn’t stop anyone from celebrating any president(s) they choose on this holiday. :-)
