While the Gregorian Calendar has the advantages of wide use, internal stability, and a relatively simple and reasonably accurate leap-year rule, it has some features which are inconvenient. Among those are the irregular lengths of the months. This is the inheritance of the judgement of Julius Ceasar, who set the lengths of the months of the calendar to suit his purposes. Those purposes, however useful at the time, have been lost to us. Coincidentally, Undecil(is) is identical to January, and Sextember is identical to August, so the current Gregorian name may be substituted for either.
