One of the disinformation spins is that Spain's 9/11 (3/11/2004) is exactly 911 days since 9/11/2001.
Now, unless I got the date wrong on the Spain bombing:
You do not count 9/11/2001. That's day zero, right?
911 days from 9/11/2001 is 3/10/2004. If you count 9/11/2001 in the number of days, then it is 3/9/2004.
Look at it this way:
9/11/2001-3/11/2004, starting with the number of days left in Sept 2001.
Sep 2001 - 19 Oct 2001 - 31 Nov 2001 - 30 Dec 2001 - 31 Jan 2002 - 31 Feb 2002 - 28 Mar 2002 - 31 Apr 2002 - 30 May 2002 - 31 Jun 2002 - 30 Jul 2002 - 31 Aug 2002 - 31 Sep 2002 - 30 Oct 2002 - 31 Nov 2002 - 30 Dec 2002 - 31 Jan 2003 - 31 Feb 2003 - 28 Mar 2003 - 31 Apr 2003 - 30 May 2003 - 31 Jun 2003 - 30 Jul 2003 - 31 Aug 2003 - 31 Sep 2003 - 30 Oct 2003 - 31 Nov 2003 - 30 Dec 2003 - 31 Jan 2003 - 31 Feb 2003 - 29 Mar 2003 - 11 (day of Spain bombing).
Am I right? Seems like another fine example of "fuzzy math" and the Repukes' prime example of public schooling (they couldn't pass the 9th grade proficiency test, therefore the school is to blame?).
