Historical calendar fact

In 1751, Britain legislated to adopt the Gregorian Calendar, which took effect on the 2 of September taking away eleven days at midnight. Which meant the women were in labour for 11 days, commencing on the 2 of September 1751 and giving birth on the 14 of September 1752. No events would have occurred in Britain or the associated colonies at this time. The reason for this was the Julian calendar had extra 376 days in a year. This decision was not popular with the people. I know a few people who would have had to work out other days to celebrate their birthdays.

The calendars were changed previously in 1538. In 1938, there were concerns the calendar would have to be changed again in the year 2000. A new calendar did not eventuate. However, the year two thousand and the reliance on technology led us to the concern over the Y2K bug. The bug was the name of concerns about computer systems and their internal calendars not having 2000 coded. The reason for this was shorthand ran rife, and the code only would recognise 1900 as the year. So 60 would always mean 1960. It was potentially causing a breakdown in security of critical web-based applications causing pandemonium. It did not pan out like that either.

While we say a year is 365 days long, it is 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 45 seconds. It is why the Gregorian Calendar has a leap year and has had since 45 BC.
