I don't know if Busimanolotome Osceola, my passed father-in-law and founder of the New Seminole, was aware of this record-keeping (since 1986) but this is the first time Nokosee and I have ever heard of it. According to the linked article above, the EOD has "never fallen so early as in 2017."
We suspect it will only get worse what with Trump in charge. Too bad for all of us.
