I have often used theterm 'kilometreage' to replace MILAGE and *Milestone with 'Kiloshila' - the stone markers at ONE kilometre distance since *SHILA* in Indian Hindi/Sanskrit Language is referred to mean 'stone'.

*****The New Calendar Rhyme*****
Thirty days in July, September:
April, June, November, December;
All the rest have thirty-one; accepting February alone:
Which hath but twenty-nine, to be (in) fine;
Till leap year gives the whole week READY:
Is it not time to MODIFY or change to make it perennial, Oh Daddy!
And make the calendar work with Leap Week Rule! ***** ***** ***** *****
