Well, if you want to take the average month, it would actually be (6*31 + 5*30 + 1*28.25)/12 = 30.3541667 days.

So taking kickoff time into account, 30.35 days from the time of this post, the season will be starting. So the poster was correct.

you forgot to include the leap day that they throw in every hundred years Kyle, your formula is WRONG! or you are approximating, oh wait, thats what the other guy was doing

my percentage error is less.

365.2425/12 = 30.436875 is the exact solar monthly average.

My approximation
%error = 100*(30.3541667 - 30.436875)/30.436875 = -0.27.

His
%error = 100*(30 - 30.436875)/30.436875 = -1.44.
 
There are 97 leap years every 400 years which equates to .2425 extra days a year. But .25 is a pretty good approximation.

is this based on the fixed stars? or the only true reference which would be from the center of the universe if we knew where it was?

these are ALL approximations from an accelerating frame of reference, and your error excuse is not an excuse for the post pollution that you bring

Well put. We all get pissed when UGA fans call us nerds, but this is what our football message boards look like!?
