The Gunpowder Plot 

Tomorrow is Guy Fawkes day in Merry Olde. One of those cute British holidays like Boxing Day and St. Swithin's day that pretty much illustrate the old saw that the U.S. and Britain are two nations separated by a common language. I mean, are we likely to be celebrating Mohammed Atta Day any time soon?
