      From: benlizro@ihug.co.nz              Nothing to do with World Teachers as imagined in Theosophy....       https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maitreya_(Theosophy)              Rather, established by UNESCO (1994) to commemorate the adoption of a       document entitled _Recommendation Concerning the Status of Teachers_ by       UNESCO with the International Labour Organization (Paris, 5/10/1966).              https://www.unesco.org/en/days/teacher              If you're enjoying all these International Days and want more, there's a       link from that page to an extensive list of UNESCO International Days,       most of which have nothing to do with language.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
