If you guys are right about Obama leaving office peacefully- he will be precisely 666 months old at the time his term expires 12 noon Jan 20 2017.
My thanks to John Tng @ http://www.fivedoves.com ( John is extremely gifted in math/ numbers)
No, Obama was born August 4, 1961. That will make him 665.5 months old when he leaves office. Your friend is apparently gifted in math / numbers in the same way that you are a professor.
I didn't do the math.... but... how do you guys count months?
lunar months of 28 days?
Februaries?
Average them out to 30 days?
Look at the years, 12 months per year (that's sort of fixed), since 1961 to 2016, that's.... 12*55 = 660...
Then... August, September, October, November, December, that's 5, so we have 665 months.
And 20 (from January) -4 (from August) = 16 days.
+1 day, because the 4'th of August counts... 17 days.
I'm with rasetsu on this. It's closer to 665.5 than 666 months.
Maybe there will be delays with his departure from office!
