Jan 2, 2012 at 16:26 | comment | added | avi | @Yehuda if you read the article I linked to, you will see that not everyone agrees that Sunday is the first day. For example the ISO does not. | |
Jan 2, 2012 at 16:10 | comment | added | msh210♦ | Yehuda, welcome to the site, and thanks for your view. Backing facts up with sources is always helpful: otherwise, we have only your word to go on and, no offense, but most of us don't know you. I hope you stick around and enjoy the site; registering your username will afford you a better site experience. Note also that in the United States many people consider Sunday the last day of the week and Monday the first. | |
Jan 2, 2012 at 14:06 | comment | added | Yehuda | Sorry, what I meant was that everyone agrees that Sunday is the start of the week even if not the day of rest | |
