I think it's pretty clear that not very many people possess this talent, but it doesn't make you weird!

Just because it's not normal or "ordinary" doesn't make it wrong, it just makes it extraordinary ^-^

      I was thinking 'The years U.S. presidents would be elected?' And then 'What does that have to with anything?'

I can't remember the formula now but I used to do it too. You need to remember about 12 numbers and then follow some obvious rules. It got it down to about a second. The only problem was, everyone asking me the dates didn't know what day they fell on so didn't know if I was right or not.

Perhaps you don't use the formula, though. That would be better.

I made this post because I want your opinion on whether this is normal, but I won't try to prove that I'm a calendar savant online. Anyone could easily look up dates. Example: <a href="http://www.hf.rim.or.jp/~kaji/cal/cal.cgi?2222" rel="nofollow">http://www.hf.rim.or.jp/~kaji/cal/cal.cgi?2222</a>

  Well duh, but look at all the other weird stuff people ask on this website. Like one person asked if it was normal to lock your dog in your car at night to keep people from stealing your car? There's no career that offers a job for that either.
