Martin Luther King Jr. Day
Today is Martin Luther King Jr. Day in the United States, a federal holiday in all 52 states. The /usr/bin/calendar program shows incorrectly that yesterday, Jan 18, was Martin Luther King day in New York. And it does not show that today, Jan 19 the third Monday in January, is the correct US holiday.

Darn, man. That subject and initial sentence was pretty darn close to hit the spam training bucket. :-) It does look like spam. As ropers pointed out to me, there are 50 states not 52... The point I want to make is that Martin Luther King Jr. Day is a holiday in all US states, not just New York state alone. Richard
