Will never change the current one. Just won't happen.

 

[Goosemaster]

That man dwarfs my intelligence, so naturally, I want to destroy the infidel!

 

[ChrisIsBored]

Haha "Newton Week". Awesome. ;D

 

[new2AMD]

I like the holidays being on different days for the most part.

 

[SpunkyJones]

I don't have any issues with the calender the way it is.

 

[sixone]

Will never happen - we can't even get rid of daylight savings time, despite all the grumping.

 

[Amused]

I propose a 13 month calander with each month having exactly 4 weeks.

 

[Lonyo]

Yeah, wouldn't it be great to have your birthday on a monday EVERY year.

What about the extra 1.2422 days every year?

So we'll have an odd month and leap year still.

I was thinking that. If they changed it, everyone would want their birthday or holiday to fall on a Sat.

Variety is nice.

 

[MikeyIs4Dcats]

loon!

 

[Muadib]

bump for the night people!

I propose a calender with 365 days a year and no months, because they are more of a hassle than people seem to think. Each individual business can decide its own schedules without conforming to a 7 day schedule. High stress jobs could have 3 days in work, 1 day out work, repeat. Part time jobs could go 10 straight days then two off days... without the 7 days in a week ~30 days in a month barrier, the possibilites are much better!

My point is that I'm just another wack job on the internet putting effort into what really doesn't need changed. There are so many more things in life to worry about. Besides, we love getting blessed with 3 day weekends and we love the idea of rollover holidays that make sure we get more of them... especially when the little kids have to be in school on at least one of the days because we worked on a different day!

What a whack job.

New Year's day on a sunday would suck.

 

[Kyteland]

While we're at it somebody needs to get the world switched over to the 28 hour day

Which of course is not measurable.

Couldn't switch to Metric in the USA either, heh.
