All months are shorter now because of the carbon tax.
Of course....................
This makes sense now.
I was confused

I though the months were 10% longer since GST came in, but its obvious, the carbon tax has shortened them.
Maybe a user pays system might work better.
Those of us who work can pay more to have longer months to work harder and take less holidays and those who "choose" not to work can apply for a carbon rebate and special exemption to make the months shorter so they can get paid more often.

Now - seriously, I think its an age thing. The older you get the quicker it goes. (time that it!)
