Calendar Conundrum

Thanks once again, Peter, for such an interesting Newsletter. Also for the correct information on the calendar and its eccentricities. Did you actually manage to find a totally correct answer? If so, I would like to congratulate them.
 
Time is only relative. :)

And to answer Peter's question, I would keep my birthday.

I always wonder how much the average person knew about what was going on about the calendar changes.
Did they even celebrate birthdays?
 
Riots you say? They must have had too much time on their hands!! ;)
 
It looks as if there might be an interesting book on the subject although it's not in public libraries at least in my part of Canada.
 
Thanks Peter. For some reason that Newsletter and the one for 25 Oct managed to deposit themselves into my FH folder. So congrats to David.
