Things I learned in Dublin last weekend:
- One is welcome to refer to today as "St. Patrick's Day" or "Paddy's Day", but NOT "St. Paddy's Day". I failed to clarify why that is the way it is, but I believe it has something at least loosely related to "the Troubles".
- There are a LOT more Americans who have passports than most people in Europe think, and they were ALL in Ireland over the weekend.

I am so glad you posted this clarification. I have referred to it incorrectly many times this year. Wow. Fortunately, no one knew any better to correct me... so I can be "that guy" next year. :-)
