Hey Stu,
A happy Waitangi (pronounced 'Why-tung-ee') Day!!
For your trivia file Waitangi is where the majority of Maori nations agreed a treaty with the British crown. Unfortunately they made two versions, one in Maori and one in English and the translations don't match. This and general English arrogance led to the Maori Wars.
In Maori Waitangi means weeping waters which was some what prophetic.
