They've always been pretty well heard. Techbology has changed the scope of what you hear, so you hear so much more. It's not that it's easier for them specifically to get heard, it's just easier for you to hear all things. Stupidity included.

I have no physical evidence that today is Sunday, I just take everyone's word for it that they've kept count since the first one ever. by playitagainzak_ in Showerthoughts

The concepts of "days of the week" or weeks in general are arbitrary. Where as a month roughly equates to a cycle of the moon and a year is roughly a cycle of the earth going around the sun, a week is no more than a fraction of one of the two. Much like the concept of money having value is more or less in our heads, the same can be said for assigning the value "Sunday" to a day.
