Good thing that the one who was first did that anyway, as that would be an annoying technicality; though I’m sure we could resolve this sort of thing easily, not being a strictly-governed show. ---

Just out of curiosity, would you have accepted [My fine feathered friend](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=393286) as a thread with an animal in the title? How about [Firefox 2.0 released](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=393504)? ---

[QUOTE=Captain Carrot] Good thing that the one who was first did that anyway, as that would be an annoying technicality; though I’m sure we could resolve this sort of thing easily, not being a strictly-governed show. [/QUOTE] True…but someone could probably just say any answer for some of the harder ones in that category and nobody would know if it were really a topic or not. Hahaha. To be fair, I didn’t make any of the rest things that were too hard to find and in my defense, it was the last category I added just to need one more. ---

[QUOTE=congodwarf] Dammit, I got the post but I had a typo on the date. [/QUOTE] Actually, the dates in the OP on that one are confusing. He says they remember May 5, 1945, but then he says that they observe it every May 4th. Silly Dutch! ---
