After reading the prologue of this document , I'm in doubt about Gregorian calendar and his foundation and I read:
19-year cycle
The tropical year is about 365¼ days, while the synodic month is also slightly longer than 29½ days on average. This gets corrected in the following way. Nineteen tropical years are as long as 235 synodic months (Metonic cycle). A cycle can last 6939 or 6940 full days, depending on whether there are 4 or 5 leap days in this 19-year period.
After 19 years the lunations should fall the same way in the solar years, so the epact should repeat after 19 years. However, 19 × 11 = 209 , and this is not an integer multiple of the full cycle of 30 epact numbers (209 modulo 30 = 29, not 0). So after 19 years the epact must be corrected by +1 in order for the cycle to repeat over 19 years. This is the saltus lunae (jump of the moon). The sequence number of the year in the 19-year cycle is called the Golden Number. The extra 209 days fill 7 embolismic months, for a total of 19×12 + 7 = 235 lunations.
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epact
After reading it, I found the fact that the year 1995 is the starting year in the “cycle” and I found two facts that atrack my attention:
1995 - November 1 – NASA loses contact with the Pioneer 11 probe.
1995 - September 19 – The Washington Post and The New York Times publish the Unabomber's manifesto.
Are you interested in the Unabomber’s manifesto?
Industrial Society and Its Future (so called Unanomber’s manifesto) begins with Kaczynski's assertion that "the Industrial Revolution and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race."….

Kaczynski, Have you ever read about the Anglo-Dutch System? :D
