I am so focussed on my structured activities1 for the quasquibicentennial of the battles of 1796–1800 (to be followed by the vigbicentennial of 1805–15), as well as other anniversaries in 'les autres periodes', that I completely missed one this year; the bicentennial of Napoleon's death (5/5/212)!

Bravo 'Marius'!
1Good old serendipity strikes again, having chosen this year to begin the focus of my activities on the anniversaries.
2That date works whether you are reading it my way of the US style.
Easily missed, as I gaze at my arsenic green shed!
