Hey all! I have a magazine with science.
And i just read: "The days from 2-14 Septemper 1752 dosen't exists"
I have used Google And Wikipedia for some time now.. And i found nothing!
Any smart heads out there?

Just what the heck is 2-14 September 1752 anyway

Its days..
In the British Empire and all it's related holdings at the time, on the 1st January 1752 they decided to make the switch from the Julian calender to the Gregorian calender, to take effect on 2nd September. That required the days between 2 and 14 be essentially deleted as the Julian calender was, by that time, inaccurate by 11 days.
Well how servilely informative!

And people started rioting because they thought the government stole days from their lives.

Somehow, I imagined your avatar saying this in a monotonic, robot synthesized voice, and I could only stand in awe.

Clever bastard!
I thought everyone knew this from the Dan Brown Books/Scrooge McDuck Comics?
That post needed a "The More You Know!" after it.
My bad, the change was adopted on 1st January, and [i]took effect[/i] in September.
EDIT: Or wait, the first revision was perfectly alright, although the current one is more informative.

Nothing would happen, nobody can be that dumb now, can they?

I remember reading something that said global warming was caused by daylight saving time.

Ah well, I'll just make a post joking about how little Bartholomew didn't get a 4th birthday after the change, and then an outbreak of cholera
