Maybe. There is another date coming up that may cause problems, February
29th of this year. Normally the turn of the century year does not have
a leap year. Because this is the change of 400 years (I believe I have
this right), we have a leap year this year and a February 29. There is
some concern that some programs, such as mortgage programs, have not
taken this into account. Apparently some mortgage companies have recommended
not sending in a mortgage check on this date.
However, if my memory is correct, this change was made long after Pope
Gregory as a further correction. So he didn't know about it.
