That's okay, but do you think you should take the sign down now?

*takes

He could just edit it to '8 today! (for the 14th and 10/365ths time running)'

I don't think you quite have the hang of that.

Have you counted the leap-years too?
c|_| 43 - Wetting the Baby's head
Bluebottle Posted Jan 24, 2002
Yes.
I was born on January 18th 1980.
Since then there have been leap years in:
1980, 1984, 1988,1992,1996 & 2000,
So that is 6 years with 366 days, which equals 2,196 days
As I'm 22 years old, the 22 years, minus the 6 leap years = 16 normal years.
16 x 365 = 5,840
2,196 + 5,840 =8,036
And, as my birthday was 6 days ago:
8,036+6 = 8,042.

Just a shame that on all your forum entries the underline gets in the way and it looks like 8.042 days

That would set an impressive record for youngest poster, I suspect.

Only sensible thing to do today, it's cold and snowing from all directions.

Hmm.... *wonders whether trying to meet various people coming from different places all on one train is such a good idea...*
Well, I'm only 7299. But I'll be married when I'm 7468... Hmm....
See you all tomorrow.

I've lost count. It tends to happen when you're over 8000.
