What's stopping us from just switching to this calendar right now? How do I convert my birthday to this calendar? I'll switch this very second
Trillions of dollars
damn pieces of paper 😔
I like the suspense of the current calendar. This one is too square.
Half year = 6 Months 2 Weeks
Quarter year = 3 Months 1 Week
It gets more complicated if you count the days in both systems
In the current system we have ... six months can equal anywhere from 181 to 185 days depending on which day of the year you want to start counting from.
In the proposed calendar system half a year would always equal 182 days
If today is February 15th, what day is it in this new calendar? How do time zones work?
February 15 is the 46th day of the year .... no matter what calendar would be created or adopted ... it would always be the 46th day of the year
Um in the proposed calendar Feb 15 is Day 43 (28 + 15), assuming Month 2 is still called Febuary.
