Some great moments for 14 January in pacifist/peace-making history: In 1784, the US ratified the peace treaty with England, ending the Revolutionary War. Albert Schweitzer was born in 1875, becoming famous as a missionary, theologian, organist and pacifist (winning the Nobel Peace Prize in 1952). In 1994, presidents Clinton and Yeltsin signed agreements "to stop aiming missiles at any nation and to dismantle the nuclear arsenal of Ukraine." Also a note about today's arithmetic: 14/1=14.
