TIME Party in 2010/2011? Can't Post

I discovered something!

Tolkien tells us that Frodo begins his journey on his birthday: Thursday, Halimath 22, 3018 TA. The Ring is destroyed on Sunday, Rethe 25, 3019 TA.
(Halimath 22 is our September 23 and Rethe 25 is our March 27.)
The next time Cormarė falls on a Thursday is in 2010!

So, it looks like the next ideal "reading season" is September 2010 through March 2011.
I'm looking forward to it! Should we plan something special? A TORn TIME party?

BTW, after the 2010/2011 season, this won't line up again until 2021/2022 (the next time September 23 falls on a Thursday.)

Did someone say party? [In reply to] Can't Post

I'll agree to participate in some way for that - thats yes!

Elven by name, Hobbit by nature

'Road lead ever on and on
down from the door where it began
now far ahead the road has gone
down from where all began' -FOTR-

and through all the world has changed
the ages come and go with time
and yet those remain unchanged
unto they journey westward
over the sea...
