Fact.

Morvis13:
(click to show/hide)While there is a "city" in Quebec name Saint Valintin (without the 'e') so close enough.
It has 500 people and is a tourist trap on Feb 14th. They recieve 1000s of letters from around the world.
Mostly because the post mistress actually puts a special stamp on the cards.
So I guess this is a FACT.

Caffiene:
FACT

...maybe.

--- End quote ---

FACT.  This rural farming village of about 500 people is also overrun with lovers for its 10-day St. Valentine's celebration of love, Le Festival de la Saint-Valentin.

Awww.  There are also a number of American (USian, for GI) communities, like Loveland, Ohio, whose post offices get seasonally deluged as Morvis describes.

Also, way to ruin our heretofore perfect week, Citizen Skeptic, geeeeeeez.



I love today's FoC so much that Pee-wee Herman would tell me to marry it.

Friday, May 18:  The Italian sport of bocce involves firing revolvers at stacks of fireworks.  Fact or Crap?
