I'm trying hard to write as serious as possible. However,
probably a wrong choice of words - like Jeroen, I'm not
a native English speaker - may cause someone to think I
was in my usual mode.
What's wrong with the word anniversary? Is it improper
to use it in this context? IIRC, the Oklahoma bombing
was timed in the "anniversary" to the Waco slaughter,
wasn't it?
