Like George Washington. Interesting how he managed to get himself born on George Washington's birthday!

Any one remember when this first became a national holiday? Probably in the 70's, because I do remember (vaguely). They were merging George Washington's bday (2/11) and Abraham Lincoln's (2/22) and having only one holiday. That's why they call it President's Day.
And I remember this mostly because my baby brother (now 43) was born on Feb 22 too.
