Use common sense here. Remember changing calendar means a change of routine for most people on the world. You have to rename all names of months and days, and hey, all softwares with dates instantly become obsolete. If you think the Y2K bugfixing is tedious, think about how much more efforts are needed to change all embedded and regular software containing date mechanisms (changing the number of months from 12 to 13, and number of days in a year).
This calendar actually looks more like several non-Western lunar calendars. (Islamic and Jewish. Chinese calendar is a mix of solar and lunar factors) It actually looks far less rationalistic than the Gregorian calendar, so I doubt whether we will see it.
IMHO this calendar has a greater chance of becoming reality instead, if the New Agers at the United Nations have their say:
This is a rationalistic rearrangement of the Gregorian calendar, and they had even had that "World Day" for the New Age buddy buddy use. ;-)
That'll teach me to work on my post for more than 5 minutes. You said everything I wanted to much better then I did about Y2K. Thank you for the link to the World Calender.
