Brian,
As a JM, I had the knowledge of this "puzzle" prior to its publication. I, probably, was the first to access it after posted (it was about midnight here in Brasil). And as I knew already the answer (since, at least for me, itīs an old puzzle), I didnīt post it.
Only when your challenge appeared, I decided to give a try, and I donīt even know if my answer is that you were thinking. But, without your challenge, certainly I would never think about it.
About the "calendar coincidence", in fact not a coincidence, it was a suggestion of one of the JM, immediately accepted by the others, and about the facts that come to the memory of us all, not only to the americans, my oppinion is quite similar to Larryīs. And Iīm not an american. Forgive it? Never!
