Naming Things

I just had a thought: what is the point in naming everything?

particularly dates

Wouldn’t it be far easier to calculate how many months it was until your birthday instead of thinking about May to November, but Month 5 to Month 11. Instead of thinking on Tuesday how many days until Saturday, you thought on Weekday 2 How many days until Weekday 6

I think the Americans got their street names right, numbered by blocks, like 46 and 3rd or whatever.

If names are so awesome how come the hours of the day are not named as well? there’s only 24 of them

Well I must be off: I need to get back to work at a quarter past Steve
