So there's a "Read Across America" day, and you consider the very act of not reading Dr. Seuss on that day Orwellian? What is they read Dr. Seuss every other year—is that worth 0.5 Orwells? Are there any other authors that must be read on that day to keep our Orwell-o-Meter down? I agree we should never go full Orwell, but as long as we keep it below 0.66666 Orwells (repeating, obviously), I think we should be safe.

Except that "Read Across America" is Dr. Seuss's birthday, and "Dr. Seuss Day" is the other common name for it? And, what about the rest of the events? I think you are merely trolling, and not really arguing in good faith. In that case, I'm done replying to you here. Wish you a happy new year, and have no scruples: we all gonna end up loving the Big Brother anyway :-)
