Earth what? Day?

Now, I know I was buried in work but, I do clearly remember hearing about Obama's Cairo speech, the Tiananmen Anniversary, and Stephen Colbert's plan to air this week's shows from Baghdad. Shouldn't World Earth Day mean something to most people?
As it turns out there are two Earth Days, the other one is on April 22nd; maybe thats some of the problem. But maybe the very concept of dedicating 2 days days of the year to the Earth is an even bigger part of the problem. Isn't there something about Earth that resists Day-izing?
