Today's date seems to bear some significance that I can't quite put my finger on. Something about fortune and self-reliance. Happy birthday, America, and all that. Hope all is well.

On July 4th, 2013 the president of the United States delivers
his “Good Luck” speech. This speech is picked up by ham operators
around the world and rebroadcast through every available method
of communication. Although the U.S. has for all practical purposes
ceased to exist for some months now, this speech officially marks
the end of the last great super power.
