    Default FPGeeks Calendar is forever stuck at 31 December 2013

    I tried to enter an event for next month on the FPGeeks Calendar, but I see that it ends on the last day of December, 2013.

    Any hope? Is it essentially a useless appendage, waiting to be cut off?

    Pretty advanced it seems. Many thought it ended on February 3, 1959.

    It makes me feel so young.

    I thought the Mayans said it was supposed to end on 12/21/2012. Guess the programmers were giving it an extra year...just in case.

    1959. I remember going with my science teacher to the Chicago Academy of Science (sic) in his white 1959 Chevy convertible (sometimes with the top down, not in the winter). Time could stop them, life was good....

    Guys, it may have passed you by, but we use fountain pens! As far as the rest of the world is concerned, 2013 is far too modern for us, and even 1959 is pushing it a bit.
    Some days, it's hardly worth chewing through the leather straps....

    Not only do we use them, we write actual letters that require a stamp.

    Fantastic comic. Thanks!
