According to Wikipedia, not one but two Saint Valentines are formally recognised on February 14th, Valentine of Terni and Valentine of Rome, both martyred early in the second and third centuries AD. There’s debate over which one is linked to romance or even if they were one and the same person. Nevertheless, the facts of the matter are moot: it’s now a major tradition. It’s not even confined to this world; even Azeroth is not safe from the marketing juggernaut.
Fortunately, no matter how tongue-tied you may be, Linux is here to help send your missives of devotion.
