      I think it's also the beginning of Prime Days at Amazon.

      The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

          Could you imagine having been alive for the original PI day? March 14th, 1592? I wonder if anyone at the time even noticed.

            You could have experienced it twice if you went to the right countries. Not everyone was using Gregorian calendars that year.

            I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated. I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

                The only reason I thought to look that up is that we experienced bad dates with one of our customers. They had screwed up a text string that got converted to a date (don't you just LOVE custom field crap?) Anyway, that sent us down the "What's the earliest date SQL Server can except?" rabbit hole. Which in turn brought me to the year North America accepted the Gregorian calendar. January 1, 1753, through December 31, 9999 is the answer BTW. We were getting dates like June 12, 22.

                  If you like reading and find this subject interesting then you might find the following book interesting. I did when I read it quite a few years ago.

                  Calendrical Calculations
