Huh. I suppose the history book saying Valentines day originated in the year 1801 through some immeasurably ridiculous propaganda by numerous business owners was mistaken. But then, history books aren't infallible.

Although it's likely only taking into account the modernized version of the holiday which, like almost all other holidays, went waaaayyy off in left field from what it originally was.
