In 1976 one USA celebrated it bi-centenial. Abig deal here in america. But, also out side the USA. Because it showedour individuality to the world. See we could have lost that 200 years ago but we didn't. So that makes it a world event. Even more important to me because hey I was born exactly on May 31, 1976. I hope that counts.
