Any Rollei list members going to the St. Patrick's Day parade tomorrow in NYC?
The weather will cooperate, sunny and a high of F62, quite unusual for mid -
March in NYC.

Subject: [rollei_list] OT St Patricks day
Tomorrow will be St Patrick's day, and I wish all of you the better
of it.
We might on the occasion remember a Fr Luke Wadding, born in
Waterford, 16th October 1588, without whom we might not have the
occasion for celebrating. Fr Luke Wadding was in Rome setting up the
Irish College, San Isadore's, when he got involved in the reform of
the liturgical calendar and ended up pushing for St patrick to be
included as a full card carrying member of the sainthood. It is
thanks to him that St Patricks day was promoted and celebrated and
remains an occasion for remembering what it means to be Irish.
He was also involved in getting the Irish brigades back to Ireland
for the war of 1641 fighting for the confederacy.
Have a happy St Patricks day folks,
all the best,
Larry Cuffe
