We can count up to ten, we can count to a hundred
and these are two numbers that we understand
And we can take one, multiply by the other,
and in this way get ourselves up to a grand
But much more than that and it starts to lose meaning
the mind just can't feel the big numbers it knows
I guess it's just that we get too far away from
our trusty friend old Mister Fingers and Toes
And so we use years when we count up our birthdays
but then there's the problem of having so few
and really it's days we have, that's what we're spending
and every day we get one brand spanking new
So don't let too many days spin off uncounted
This year thing is nonsense, a terrible trap
We hope that each one of your days will be happy
except that there's bound to be some filled with crap
Please note, this Days Alive Calculator calculates the total number of days you have been alive, NOT the number of days OLD you are. There is a difference of one day. For example, the day you were born was your first day alive on earth. But you're not one day old until 24 hours have passed, i.e., until the next day. Capisce?

As for the calculator, I stand by it. Most similar calculators come up a day short because they count days old instead of days alive. There is a one-day difference. You're one day old on your second day on the planet. If you're born January 1, most people would look at January 2 and say OK 2-1 is 1. I say you've been on the planet 2 days. That's why it's "days alive" and not "days old". I haven't seen another days alive calculator out there. But there are actually things I don't know!

and if it is as silly than I bet your calculator isn't as accurate either...
found two other sites with the same calculations and they did not agree with yours...

It's pretty interesting, it's a different perspective to count the days rather than the years.
BUT.... What if i want to know how much days has Jesus been alive? It doesn't work, i think. And what's his birth date anyway.. 1st January, Year 0?

Your 10,000th day will be in 19 days, on November 27!

As far as working correctly forever, well, forever is a pretty long time, and includes such events as the bloated supergiant red star sun consuming Mercury and Venus and scorching the Earth to a cinder in another few billion years, or should I say hundreds of billions of days, but I think right up until then it ought to keep working all right.

I see you put some work into it, but it wont function correctly forever, will it?
