BFish Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 While I'm not a particularly "wear it on my sleeve" religious type, the meaning of Easter does not go unnoticed. So Happy Easter to all of you who celebrate the occasion. It also means April 15th is closer which for fellas like myself and Dave McReynolds is the day we look forward to. Link to comment

Gregori Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 I'm certainly celebrating the true meaning of Easter --> Spring Equinox! I am SO ready to be done with Winter... (Brrrr...) Excerpted from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eostre: (...) The modern English term Easter developed from the Old English word Eastre, which itself developed prior to 899.

Corresponding traditions occur with the Roman goddess Aurora and the Greek goddess Eos. (...) Link to comment
