- Erisian (Discordian calendar) --43 Bureaucracy, 3178 y.C. -- the Erisian calendar, which we owe to
Malclypse the Younger, dates events from 2816 A.L. (1184 BCE, Gregorian), the year of the Original Snub (see Mal's Principia Discordia, from Loompanics Unlimited in Port Townsend, Washington).
Each year has five seasons, representing the five degrees of SNAFU imposed upon us by the Original Snub--Chaos, Discord, Confusion, Bureaucracy and International Relations. That gives us 73 days to
each season, which equals one Chockmah day in Cabala. Herein the Wise and Subtle will find a profound secret hidden, if they can Know, and Dare, and Will and Keep Silence. Every fourth year, of
course, we run into that damned extra day that also perplexes the Gregorians. We Erisians call it St. Tibb's Day, since everybody now agrees that St. Tibb never existed. [January 24, 2002 is
Prickle-Prickle, Chaos 24, 3168]
