Our Glorious History, Part I

<grisom> I propose that we institute a new calendar where the year ends on the Winter Solstice. That way, the end of the world and the end of the year will coincide nicely. It is also appropriate, I think, that the year should begin on the day when things get LESS sucky.

<tezcatlipoca> second, but mostly because I'm a big fan of as much change as possible. which is also why I'm not "conservative".

<grisom> Also propose numbering years from the date of the end of the world. So, like, today would be the first day of the year 3... uh... B.E. (Before the Eschaton) or something.

<grisom> It seems natural that our calendar should otherwise be identical to the Coptic/French Republican system. But how should the months be named?

<tezcatlipoca> ooh ooh ooh! I love the republican system (but I don't know why)

<tezcatlipoca> as long as we can keep Thermidor, and Brumaire, I'm fine with all the other, uh, months (?) being more coptically themed...
