He failed the Basic Intelligence Test.
Jan got it right when they asked him how many Seconds there were in a
year.He thought for a while and then came up with 31,536,000
But Quick-Witted Mr.Jaune says ``Twelve''
''How'd you figure that out?'' says the ISP man
``Well,'' sez Mr. Jaune, ``There's January Second, February Second.....''

number of seconds.Quoted message said:

As a matter of fact, if you want to split hairs, the correct answer is
31,558,149 supposing you contemplate a sidereal year -

Geez, then please tell me how many days there are in a Sidereal year?
Lessee now, Roger Penrose told me it was 365.25636 as opposed to the
Tropical year which 365.24220 days (Or roughly 20 minutes less)But all that Jazz is a complete Black Hole to Davey, and Einstein said
it didn't matter at all anyway 'cause it was all Relative and if
you fooled around with it long enuf you'd be sure to meet yourself
coming back then along comes Bohr and says Einstein was fulla [censored] on
the Quantum stuff🙂

and, when measured in astronomical years, the length changes. -

corrected for this all the time. Therefore discussing "exact" length of a
day or of a year in seconds is somewhat inaccurate by definition.I don't have my charts anymore, but the time variance is significant and
each year it is accelerating. -

Because your legs are too short.

enough for most practical work.Unless you care deeply about the difference between UTC and mean solar time

have caused significant social dislocations, maybe you should.Ben

Hu-Flung-Dung was out to have an argument. 365 days was a good enuf
approximation of a year in the context it was originally used.He's just another ignorant RBR'er
