One value put forward was 4800 years. While this is very interesting in a theoretical way, what about the last hundred years or so? If Friday 13ths are unevenly spread through the 4800 years there must be local maxima and minima. Are we currently in an epoch in which there are a comparatively large number of Friday 13ths?
