The name specifically mentioned with this day is
Kathy Sullivan, the first woman to walk in space. She logged over 500 hours of space time.This is the first time I heard of it, so maybe it's a greeting card sales tool. EXCEPT, American Greetings is offering free e-cards! Not just 'You Go Girl' cards. but birthday or anniversary or just say hi cards -- all free. What a deal.
I wonder . . . Is there an equivalent for brave boys?

Men are celebrated enough. Like Clinton and Foley. Nope, lets stick to Outstanding Women for a bit.
Dear mdmhvonpa,
Actually, I agree. I was just thinking about raising boys as a single mother. I would have told them their day is every day. [and I wonder why my older son said we were a sissy family)
We'll give up this day when our history books and role models highlight as many -- or more -- women as men.
You Go Girl! Vicki
