Make It A Date
Believe it or not, I'm working right now. Currently, I'm working on a project involving calendars and dates, something that intrigues me anyhow. Most intriguing is the calculation of Easter. Dan had been complaining that it was "too early" this year, falling on March 31. In my online travels this morning, I found this page that has some fascinating information on Easter's mobility. I decided to look at how Easters have been spread over Dan's lifetime. Easter can be as early as March 22 (27,550 times out of the cycle of 5,700,000 years!), but won't be in the next 150 or so. The earliest we might see Easter is March 23, in 2008. The latest Easter happens is April 25, which hasn't happened since 1943, and won't again until 2038. Other than that, here are Easters in Dan's lifetime, through next year's:
