What really bugs me about that one is that the guy responsible for
burning down the library in Alexandria got (completely undeserved)
credit for a calendar, and his successor (responsible for destroying
the Roman Republic for good) messed up the pattern of days per month
even more, because the month named after him couldn't be shorter than
his predecessor's, of course.
