Office Depot is one of the dozen or so retailers who will be carrying all varieties of them. Back in September there was a rush to produce calendars, unprecedented in the previous 8 months. Several trucks were seen going from major calendar printing companies to Office Depot depot centers. These trucks were unmarked and the trailer locked. Days later, mysteriously, their retail stores began carrying them. Shelf space and tags were already available for them. What are they trying to hide? My take is that for their entire history Office Depot has been ordering the production of calendars, distributing and selling them, all under the approval of all of their shareholders, all to make money.
I tried to tell my local police department, nobody would listen. And then I looked around, reams of Office Depot paper, boxes of paper clips branded Office Depot, their brand of post it notes. I bet if we look, this has gone as high as the White House. But conveniently for them, the White House has never been open to the public for an office supply audit in all of its years of operation. hmm, I wonder why? I comment, you decide.

I created a twitter account, @TimeInAYear, where Iβm scaling the last 20,000 years of human history to the calendar year according to this table:
From January 1st to January 13th each day will cover 1000 years of history (18000 BCE to 5000 BCE)
From January 14th to February 7th each day will cover 100 years of history (5000 BCE to 2500 BCE)
From February 8th to February 13th each day will cover 50 years of history (2500 BCE to 2200 BCE)
From February 14th to May 26th each day will cover 20 years of history (2200 BCE to 161 BCE)
From May 27th to December 31th each day will cover 10 years of history (160 BCE to 2019 CE)
I know that many of you have outgrown Twitter, but if you still partake, Iβll be tweeting many interesting facts, with the added advantages that: 1) not more than 280 characters per entry, 2) itβll be an easy way to learn what was happening elsewhere while the plague ravaged Europe, or which society invented what how many years before the rest of the world π
Everyone was dismayed.
On the Jewish calendar, there is a missing period of around 165 years between the end of the Babylonian Captivity to the reign of Alexander the Great, due to them leaving a lot of Persian kings out of their history/timeline. I was wondering when and who established this mistake on the calendar.
Meaning what "on this date" has the most heavy hitters? By whatever criteria you like!
Include Jerry solo project stuff or not - it changes the answer for me, I think.
I've discussed this some with /u/abud1 and /u/thoughtsonthedead already - I'll let them speak to their opinions, and I'll reserve mine for a bit. Honestly, I'm still thinking about it.
Just a "for instance" - someone could make a case for 3.28

I wanted to create a space calendar for space history. I wanted to know if this has been done and if not would anyone be willing to help me put together these events on a google calendar?
