wow, folie, you did a lot of leg work there...
i was looking at the calendar and briefly toyed with the idea that the different colours might mean something, but i don't believe that they do.
remember minkowski was saying something about them just sitting around being bored out of their minds. i can't remember the exact wording that he used. it looked to me like someone was just marking the calendar to mark the passing of the days, maybe to avoid losing track of time given the propensity for people in that area to have time lapses and maybe lose track of time.
I think it was simply a prop decision. Like darnzy said above, the Xs remind me of someone counting down to christmas. i think if it was all one colour, it would be more deliberate, like someone counting down to something, but the different colours suggest that someone just marked the days as they passed, maybe when they got around to it.
