Gay Uncles Day sounds like a good idea. I googled greeting cards gay uncles day, and sure enough there's cards for it.

I agree about the Oscars for Oppenheimer. That movie has triggered a lot of media coverage, with atomic scientists weighing in on to what degree the information is accurate (some of them say it's not entirely), and more articles about atomic bomb issues in general. I think people might give it more credit for being profound than it deserves, but there's not much else out there that seems profound, so it's at the top.

It's a good thing for the generations younger than ours to learn more about atomic energy because they didn't live through the times when the bomb was thought to be so wonderful and there was a lot of testing, and then watched the long-term aftereffects of waste radiation. We might be more aware of it out here in the west because bombs were tested in our deserts with harmful radiation creating cancer pockets downwind, and our relatives were involved in mining uranium to make the bombs. Plus, one of my uncles worked for the Atomic Energy Commission, made several trips to Los Alamos in the 1950s and 60s. Another facility he had a lot to do with was Oak Ridge, Tennessee.

regarding the calendars.
