>&#13;     The calendar extension presents a series of functions to simplify
     converting between different calendar formats.  The intermediary or
     standard it is based on is the Julian Day Count.  The Julian Day Count is
     a count of days starting from January 1st, 4713 B.C.  To convert between
     calendar systems, you must first convert to Julian Day Count, then to the
     calendar system of your choice.  Julian Day Count is very different from
     the Julian Calendar! For more information on Julian Day Count, visit
