"So what's unique about October 13"

 
Hi Doves,
 
I gather from news throughout the day, we will be introduced to Intergalatic Species throughout our world.  And as China, and I also saw Tuscon getting fly-bys by these VOD's, I thought why is October 13 so special.  Here are some events that occured on that day:
 
  • 1792 In Washington, D.C., the cornerstone of the United States Executive Mansion (known as the White House since 1818) is laid.
  •  

    1881 Revival of the Hebrew language as Eliezer Ben-Yehuda and friends agree to use Hebrew exclusively in their conversations.

    1917 The "Miracle of the Sun" is witnessed by an estimated 70,000 people in the Cova da Iria in Fátima, Portugal

    Now many of you may not remember the story of the Miracle of the Sun, but this event took place in Portugal where 3 children saw Fatima who pronounced the End of the World.  You can pull that story up on Wikipedia. 

     

    So will hope to be caught up before then, but thought this was interesting.
