Hi Astraea,
Using Christian calendar based computations will not produce favorable results when working with people using other culturally based calendars (Jewish, Indian, Chinese, etc.)
A century based calculation serves well across cultural barriers.
Ex: the fall of the Berlin wall: November 9, 1989
11 9 1989
And
11 9 89
Another date: July 4, 1776
7 4 1776 and 7 4 76.
ETA: The answer is from the maestro.
