Channukah and Thanksgiving eclipse

According to one article I read, Channukah and Thanksgiving will not collide for another 79,000 years! So it's a special event! The morning was wet, cold and slushy. It's currently snowing "white" again and moderately with a forecast of another 2 - 4 inches or so. It promises to be a nice Thanksgiving, and with Channukah occuring at the same time it should be extra interesting. Two different worlds and two different calendars and two different meanings, all happening at the same time. There are so many places on this earth totally removed from either holiday. You become very objective about this, possibly like the people who make calendars to hang on the wall.
