My city does things as follows: Garbage day starts out on (some weekday). Every time there are holidays, garbage day is pushed back permanently, according to the number of holidays. So, in the usual case of one holiday at a time, Wednesday garbage would be moved to Thursdays from now until the next holiday, when it would change to Fridays, and so on; but in December, with two holidays in a row on the 25th and 26th, Friday garbage would move straight to Tuesdays - we never have garbage pickup on weekends. Any brilliant tricks, now that this dirty topic has been raised? :-) Thanks David _______________________________________________ Remind-fans mailing list [email protected] http://lists.whatexit.org/mailman/listinfo/remind-fans
