Since HooHaa ( ray: ) broached the subject in a recently locked thread, I thought I'd continue the discussion in this more BS appropriate location.
HooHaa ( ray: ) is heading a national effort to change October to Octember since it better matches surrounding months and it's just a cool sounding month. I, however, propose we go a step further and move to a decimal calendar (to heck with all those solar worshippers).
I say we combine March and April into Mapril (none of you will really miss one more march anyway, will you?) and October and November into Octember. Then we give each month 36 days except May-September which will have 37 (go summer !!!). This would give us 10 (count them, 10) months with very easy to remember day counts and still have 365 days in a year. This would remove the last major argument against going with a base 10 system for measuring everything. :-D
Whaddya think?
