No, but I believe that if they were going to call a thousand days a
"year," they would've called a hundred days a "month;" contrariwise,
if they were going to call a hundred days a "hundred-day," they would
have come up with an appropriate name for a thousand-day. I could, of
course, be wrong, but I don't think Wolfe would throw in such an
inconsistency without at least a hint.
