You must rebuild the earthworm aquarium 2000 times to reach 20% purity. Everything in the game now requires dirt to build, from houses to smelters.


Jorb probably saw this.. we are finished.

But we have on a federal level since 1958. Technically we have 3 holidays May 1st celebrating the event: Law Day, Loyalty Day, and May Day though the latter is unofficial. That is unless is was unrecognized at some point?

The US government moved the holiday "Labor day" to September in an attempt to remove it from its international and socialist meanings. True Labor Day is today, May 1st.

So what your saying is there are a bunch of silly people celebrating Labor Day on the wrong day today?

I'm pretty sure they moved it because today is also May Day, related to the Celtic tradition of Beltane, which is pagan. For the same reasons we won't have May Poles in Salem, the US government had the sound reasoning to distance the celebration of hard work to another day.

More importantly, the Netherlands doesn't either.
I do miss an answer in the poll though.

Riiiiight. Which is the same reason we don't paint eggs during the spring equinox or erect christmas trees on the winter solstice. :lol:
