Ave Valerius et omnes!
Robert, don't forget to add add this little tid-bit:
August 13 (otherwise the Idus Sextiles in the the ancient Roman calendar) was also the day when Octavian (who would become Augustus) celebrated his victories at Illyricum, Actium, and his annexation of Egypt in 29 B.C. [Day 1 of a three-day celebration]
Neat feature keep up the good work.
Regards,
