Ah, but the point is February 11, 1731, in England and the English colony of Virginia was exactly 274 years ago today. Eleven days were added to the calendar in 1752 and January rather than March began the year. So, February 11, 1731, became February 22, 1732.
The square root of 3 is 1.732 = G Washington’s B-day.
It’s still 274 years ago, tho.
