NOTES
     An unusual calendar is printed for September 1752.  That  is
     the  month  11 days were skipped to make up for lack of leap
     year adjustments. To see this calendar, type:

     cal 9 1752

     The command cal 83 refers to the year 83, not 1983.

     The year is always considered to start in January.
