>Bart:
 A) The actual years are calculated by deduction; there is no canon 
 as to which year is which.
 B) "There are three kinds of people in this world: those who can 
 count, and those who can't." - J. K. Rowling. 
 
 James:
 
 I still stand by my original response years ago:
 Harry Potter DOES NOT live in our world, and, therefore, could have any sort of calendar. For all we know, their calendar might have 30 days for J, M, M, July, S, and N and 30 days for F, A, J, A, O, and N. We don’t know. Just making some assumption that the HP world and our world had the same Muggle history is not anything we can say for sure—folks just ASSUME it is our world, as though our world in the same world ANY fantasy novel takes place in.
