Happy Independence Day

It has been said that those who control the language control the future. I have been trying for years now to take back a little corner of the language, by wishing people a "Happy Independence Day", rather than "Happy Fourth", or "Happy Fourth of July". Especially when someone wishes me a "Happy Fourth", I make sure to respond with a "Happy Independence Day!"

Join me in bringing back meaning to the day - it is not just the fourth day of the seventh month people, it is our country's birthday!
