    I’ve been saying this exact thing for years, but good luck selling the idea to people who are either superstitious idiots, hate prime numbers, or both. “Oh noes, we can’t divide 13 into halves and quarters whatever shall we do?” Might as well keep using the stupid thing we’ve always used. Never mind that I’m 45 and still haven’t bothered to learn which months have 31 days vs. 30 days. Because I know how to look at a calender/phone.
