What we need is Software Developer Appreciation Day

Who's with me? :) Question is - how does one get a "Day" started and make it a regular occurrence? And how do we keep ourselves from trying to have more than one day? :laugh: Peace!

1. Count the number of software developers in the world. 2. Multiply that by $3. 3. Call Hallmark and give them that number.

Good idea! Lemme try that out...
"Hello, Hallmark? I have a new idea - Software Developer Appreciation Day! I think it would be great way to..."
"Well, yeah, we all called 'Geeks' too, but that is a bad generalization that..."
"I do not see what 'Revenge of the Nerds' has to do with..."
"Uh, sure, I will wait on hold for this 'tone' person..."

There was an article on Wickipedia last year about Programmer's Day - the 256th day of the year. Unfortunately, there was a bunch of arguing about the posting and it ended up being deleted. The programmers in my office are going to go out to lunch - just a small celebration for ourselves!

You can get cheap cards for as little as 99c. Most are in the $4-6 range, but that price is spread over lots of middle men in addition to the store and the company who printed it.
