This post may look slightly odd at first. "What would signify such
a
thing?", you ask? In fact, in this post, I didn't think of using
a
particular symbol of Roman script that's fifth from A to
Z.
This is actually most common out of all symbols in our British
way of talking, causing difficulty
if it is not in works of writing.
Many
books of this kind historically spring up in such a way, most
famously "Gadsby" by Wright. I say that during a day-long bloc,
all
major public distributors of information should follow this law.
How a
crowd (that is, a main mass or majority of humans) would find
this unusual "holiday" would contain a singular opportunity for
many laughs, if only for an
all-knowing minority.

So, you want to have a day without the letter 'E'? |

I am aghast to think that think this idilic notion is but a cranial fancy and claim that it should, nay, Will, soon blossom forth as a quantum probability. Forsooth. |

..and am also lost as to what U+0045 could possibly stand for. |

So, not a special day when you send cards with messages like |
|
|
"Some people say that you're obese//But who cares what
they think?//You could apply for subsidies//As a mobile
carbon sink" |
|

Why fish? Lipography isn't that hard. Any guy with a laptop
and a good vocabulary could do what I'm doing right now. |

So not a day when everyone has to go around dressed in a huge pair of foam rubber lips then? Shame. I would've voted for that. |

yay for [DrBob]'s idea! or those big, red wax lips! |

Well, the ASCII for 'E' is 45 in Hex, and the Unicode
switch for PC keyboards, plus those numbers, should
result in the printing of the Latin Capital letter 'E'. |
