European Year of Something 2012

I propose that 2012 should be the European Year of Progressive Dying, which is pretty close to the proposal from the Spanish Presidency.

PS.: These (European) Years of Something are the most stupid things that national and European institutions have come up. Nobody should tell that these years ever had any effect but pleasing those organisations and institutions in active in the respective policy fields.

Seriously though, aren't these 'Years of XYZ' an excuse to spend some money on comms? I'm sure that a bunch of PR firms are lobbying strongly to keep them and increase the budgets.

That is exactly what I think, too.
