#HappyBirthday to Y'all (in the #February13 #BirthdayCohort with #PeterGabriel @itsPeterGabriel & @HenryRollins & ALL the #FamousBirthdays @Bing lists) on #WorldRadioDay @UNESCO | @HolidaysCalendr @BirthdayMates @YourTango @MySundayMass
... or -on 'whichever of these holidays, awareness-dates &/or event-anniversaries you celebrate!'
Holidays Calendar explains this #Radio day in a report linked through 'the hyperlinks' below; but first I want to teach you about those words. And I find you understand words better if you see 'the words at their base' (then going on to look at the words at those words' bases, then the words at those words' bases, etc.-etc. ad infinitum into their Foundation)
The word “Radio (or the suffix #Radio- or #Radioed #Radioing #Radios #ClockRadio #Radiocast #RadioTelephone #RadioStation #RadioShack)” is built on ancient words that mean "|Beam, |Ray, |Radiant" (see |Radius, |Radiate, |Radioactive).
I sometimes get a little mind-spark from realizing that I have the same birthday as several famous people, and enough other people get that spark from seeing their birthday-cohort (both the currently-famous & the probably-not-yet famous) that I figure it's worth doing 'one of these entries for every birthday' ...
