800 years until it happens in August or any month? I'm trying to understand what's so exotic about this, every 31 day month has to have 3 days that occur 5 times, right?

It is true that August 2010 has 5 Sundays, 5 Mondays and 5 Tuesdays. However, such a combination occurs far more often than every 823 years. The last occurrence was in August 2004 while the next occurrence will take place in August 2021.

I'll just be happy if September 2010 doesn't have any terror attacks. It's about time. |

There are only about 10 or 20 different combos for the calender. I remember the phone book used to have a thing in there that listed calenders that fit on one page. Every calender for the last 100 years.

this will NEVER happen again - don't forget: the world ends in 2012 (according to the Mayans) so that will be the end of time, hence the end of the Calender

When a mechanic friend heard that Rigid Tools was planning to tone down its glamour calendar, he started saving them. So....he has seven Rigid calendars, one of which will work in any given year.

I thought there were only 14 different calendars, but the interweb is not helping me prove that. Anyone here disprove it?
