Default Discussion on this present situation

It is possible to rearrange observations to suit the grouping of
rotations which stretch from Mar 1st 2008 until Feb 29th 2012 into the
convenience as we know it so that we never lose sight of the cause and
effect which distinguishes us as reasoning human beings,that one 24
hour rotation will always remain fixed to a day/night cycle.It is
unconscionable that this correspondence is challenged within the
calendar system never mind embarrassing in the extreme yet
unfortunately that is the present situation as followers of Newton's
strain of empiricism assign 366 1/ rotations for an orbital circuit
that cannot contain any more than a full 365 rotations,what would
merely be disconcerting turns into a crisis by virtue of the lack of
response in this and other online communities.

It is not possible to appeal to any or one specific group and although
there have been nothing but reactions so far,most by nuisances and of
a personal nature that goes in one ear and out the other,reactions are
personal complaints and complaints do not substitute for authority.I
well understand that people are not defending Newton as much as they
are protecting their jobs but on this point alone,the loss of the
basic correspondence between a 24 hour day and a day/night cycle is a
special case,if people wish to believe me wrong,insane or any other
cheap shot then they are welcome,the only fact that matters is that
the correspondence between the proportion of full rotations to orbital
circuits is near enough 1461 rotations to 4 orbital circuits or 365
1/4 rotations to 1 orbital circuit.

There are no 366 1/ rotations per orbital circuit and it is foolish to
believe that there is even though it is proposed as a fact by
NASA,this is wrong and,even if it represents a fractured umbrella
organization,the idea that the premier space organization in the world
acquiesces to something as shockingly bad as late 17th century
reasoning undermines everything it does,On the other hand,the
appreciation of the grouping of 1461 rotations in blocks of 365 and
366 rotations that make up the calendar system is mostly an individual
thing and that is what is most dismaying,it is not a weakness although
some might perceive it that way however indignation that an entire
community has hatred for astronomy that much that it can't put the
calendar system in context of the daily and annual cycles of the
Earth.

We should be discussing many,many things but not this,not the
objection to what the Feb 29th rotation and day/night cycle does in
relation to the 4 orbital circuits and the preceding 1460 rotations
which comprise of the proportional correspondence between daily and
orbital motions.This is not a science issue in itself,this is so much
more in every facet of human existence because if we can't accept this
fact as decisive then our children will pay the price for the loss of
that great human trait which divides wisdom from speculative fiction.
