During the first half of last century, recognition of
the need for a user-friendlier successor to the Gregorian calendar
prompted world-wide study. It identified The World Calendar
as the best probable choice.
A well-documented
attempt to
make the change followed, but was not completed. In 2008, The World
Calendar in 2012 continues to unfold as a multi-level
demonstration that the current, nearly unanimous Gregorian calendar,
as we know and ignore it, quietly stifles (smothers/chokes)
potential.
"Under the reform plan, Worldsday will come after Saturday,
December 30th, and will be followed by Sunday, January 1st.Since
364 is exactly divisible by 7—while 365 and 366 are not—there
is no better way to stabilize the calendar so that month-dates
will always coordinate with weekdays."
"Jawaharlal
Nehru has said: 'Every step might well be judged according
to whether it increases or decreases the element of fear in
the world. If there is less fear then there is more reasoned
thinking, there is more understanding.' ” --from
The
Journal of Calendar Reform Vol. 25, Dec. 1955-Jan. 1956, page
190.
Once
adopted as the world's primary calendar of choice,
daily use will not require finding a reference
copy first. Experiencing this conveniencewhen six months of 2006 matched
The World Calendar spoke louder than any words
about why we need this better calendar.
THANK
YOU
for your questions, interest and
support to date!
Does
annual obsolescence make it more tempting or less tempting
to buy a cheap calendar? Would your criteria for selecting
a printed calendar change if you could use it year after
year? And consider the wasted energy when countless calendars
go unsold each year.
How
can any civilized world achieve world peace while its main
calendar battles with everyone who uses it?

If we can watch news happening live around the world
and around other planets within minutes, certainly we can
change to a better calendar between now and 2012!
= + = + = + = + =
We hear of “On This Date” anniversaries after a year
or hundreds of years, but often minus the day of the week.
Without research, that has been lost. Beginning in 2012,
at the ‘top of the hour’, new events gain exacting significance
with observances on the same day of the week.It's amazing that
we have given that so little thought when making such a
big deal over them….

+ = + = + = + =
The
same things that make calendar change so formidable also
make it absolutely too good to again let pass us by. Calendar
affects everybody who uses it and to consider that a better
calendar is available offers potential to improve daily
living – whatever that concept includes. Calendar
reform challenges many beliefs. Some will be put aside and
others confirmed. “The only thing to
fear is FEAR
OF SELF.”
As
2012 approaches, some are using it to spread their own fears
with predictions of doom and destruction. When no such negativity
arrives, like in 2000, world end scenarios will simply move
out – again. But enough
with nebulous! What is out
of our control will come to pass and what we’re able
to do can happen if we choose. The ‘top of the hour’
recognition of unanimous clock on Earth connects with another
anticipation for beyond 2012: that of raised consciousness
and increased unity. No other project is so specifically
fitting and with more potential gain than calendar reform.
Finish what study
you need now to take
part in letting The World Calendar in 2012 happen
on 1 January 2012.

TWCA
concentrates on conversion to The World Calendar in 2012
so that visualization of and planning towards any date thereafter
becomes immediately and consistently easier, with or without
a physical version of calendar, eyes open or closed. Simultaneously,
with the means to simpler documentation and memories in
place, less complicated access to past after 1 January 2012
accumulates day by day. (Posted

“Grandpa,
Daddy said when he was little like me he used miles
per gallon to move around. What’s a miles
per gallon?” “Oh, what a memory! I’m
glad we’re past that, but it was something
we did before knowing any better. For fun, since
we don’t burn much of anything now, let’s
Google MPG.” (Posted 13
