    Jezz. The old king tried to change the year to 2535 in the 70s. Not sure which one is weirder.

    So is it true that only non-Muslim Iranians celebrate Norouz? I do not think it is true because I know religious Iranians who live in the U.S. and still celebrate the Persian new year.

    I know some Iranians that put the Qur'an on their sofre. Some of the more nationalistically-minded and "grass-roots" Iranians will say that the two are mutually exclusive... but it's not a big deal in my opinion.

    Is there any relation as to why most Iranian people I know have their first names starting with the letter "S" and the Haft Sin table.

    I read that the Haft Sin table you have pictured has to have 7 items on there starting with the letter "S".

    Is there any correlation or is there is some other reason for this occurrence?
