Mar 01, 2012 — The Irish will celebrate St. Patrick's Day in a couple of weeks, but today the Welsh are celebrating St. David's Day today, in one way or another. St. David, or Dewi Sant, as he's known in the Welsh language, is the patron saint of Wales. Last summer in Remsen, south of Boonville, Welsh officials gathered to unveil a new sign featuring the longest railroad depot name in the world--take a deep breath--Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrnd-robwllllantysiliogogogoch.

Todd Moe talks with Hefina Phillips, a member of the Ontario Welsh Festival, who says David was a sixth century Celtic bishop who spread Christianity among the pagan tribes of western Britain.
