I saw the formula once in a high school math class. You can use it to determine what day of the week a future date will be. For example, I'll turn 50 on a Monday.

I think what Jim means is that this site tells you whether a date was in the future or in the past. As if we didn't know that June 14, 1978 was in the past or that Jun 14, 2054 was in the future. :)

Yes, that was my point. If a person is smart enough to log on to the internet and find the date tool, we can surmise they would know if a date is in the future or the past.

message 72: by Kami (new)

Kami (aidansmama) | 988 comments Mondays child poem

Mondays child is fair of face,
Tuesdays child is full of grace,
Wednesdays child is full of woe,
Thursdays child has far to go,
Fridays child is loving and giving,
Saturdays child works hard for his living,
And the child that is born on the Sabbath day
Is bonny and blithe, and good and gay.

message 79: by Vi (new)

Vi | 2813 comments Wow, A C-section babies only on Tuesdays? o_O Huh, wonder what they were thinking. Wonder why so many Tuesdays? Atleast as of now.

And you know what? Till recently, Tuesday was most popular day of childbirth. I saw an article which states 2009 is the first year where there were more childbirths on Wednesday. Apparently, Sunday is the least day of childbirth. And yeah, clearly, I'm bored.

DG - I wouldn't mind picking for Cathy as well as the person you have me pick for, since Cathy will be out of town.. Tania was sweet enough last month to have someone pick for me even missing the cut-off, so I don't mind spreading the love:-D
