221 years?
I particularly noticed that in the speech because I was married in 1976. I thought, "no, I've been married a lot longer than 21 years!"

Yep, I looked it up to make sure. September 17, 1787.

4. Not the day we declared liberty, the day we declared unity.
I don't think I've ever been as moved.

5. Thanks to those who noticed this.
I must go to bed now. Anyone wants to post it with a catchier subject, feel free. I think it says a lot.
