When is “Ask a Stupid Question Day”?

Abstract

On Wednesday, December 4, 1957, the first copies of the first edition of Chases' Calendar of Annual Events were delivered by the printer to Bill and Helen Chase in Flint, Michigan. Two thousand copies, consisting of 32 pages and listing 364 events, were printed. During the 26 years which have followed, Chases' Calendar has grown to nearly 200 pages, lists well over 4,000 events, has been displayed at two World's Fairs and at a White House Conference, and may be found in innumerable reference collections throughout the world.
