This thread is like the “Friday the 13th” movie franchise. It will never die. “Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter” was released in 1984. LOL ---

And slightly over 0.25 february the 29th. And more than one of me would be sockpuppeting, would it not? Multiplying me is not a nice way to get rid of me. ---

February 29th is way less than 0.25. 2/29 = 0.069. ---

I meant slightly _under_, of course, good for **eschereal** for noticing always those nitpicking know-it-alls that happen to be right, grumble mumble mumble… 0.069 makes no sense, I must have expressed myself confusingly again. Or it was not clear that I was refering to the previous post by the nitpicking know-it-alls that happens to be right, the one starting with “every year has”. ---

I don’t think language names are capitalized in Latin, even if the word “Latin” in English is. Or, if it is old enough and writen in stone, every single letter is. ---
