Just a little bit more off topic to answer a off topic reply to another
off topic message: For me thanksgiving day is a Christian day, but:
Pin holing is universal and not linked to the Christian religion. I can
imagine that we also have atheists, nihilists, buddists, Muslims and all
the other religions on this forum who even can be offended by some
messages.
P.S.Private message to Luis: The second of November may be important,
but Tiradentes still is more important!!!
