新年快樂! Happy Lunar New Year!

[randomness]

...and how often do the Lunar New Year and Ash Wednesday coincide, anyway?

(Mardi Gras followed immediately by Chinese New Year, woo-hoo!)

That's an interesting question. They're both based upon lunar cycles to an extent, so theoretically one should be able to calculate it. Hmm, seems like I have myself a project for the next few hours.

But this brings up another interesting question. What is a Chinese Christian supposed to do on a day like today: feast or fast?

Happy New Year to you too! Hm. I really need to download some chinese fonts sometime.
