has changed substantially from its earliest days
in order to continue its efforts to promote
The World Calendar.
YEARS AGO, near the beginning of 1956, The World Calendar
Association - International slipped into relative dormancy
after twenty-five years of actively seeking calendar reform.
It was a well-documented attempt and the inspirational words
of thousands of dedicated supporters
of The World Calendar now give guidance to The World
Calendar in 2012.
World Calendar Association today confronts the same burdensome
Gregorian calendar as did the ancestors of our our ancestors.
TWCA's previous attempts to replace it were but practice runs
for applying the lessons learned.
and primarily, while the world is still learning about and
discussing The World Calendar idea, we have have started working
towards a unanimously recognizable "top of the hour"
2012 deadline. Debate about schedule would otherwise unnecessarily
distract from the preparation. "Shouldn't our calendar
be as simple as our clock?"
lesson from the first half of last century is that a project
of this magnitude faced challenges that it could not fully
recognize or overcome. Today, The
World Calendar Association realizes that a majority of the
world's population last century did not even hear
about The World Calendar. Simultaneous awareness of The World
Calendar idea by a substantial majority of people living at
the same time is necessary and the next achievable step towards
adopting The World Calendar in 2012.
and best ideas don't just come out of nowhere, but implementation
emerges quickly when individuals at every level within society
and government decide to share that idea with each other.
Everyone finds benefits in not waiting and the resulting sense
of expectation is vital to progress. Sharing personal agreement
with The World Calendar in 2012 is the most important thing
everyone can do.
