You should have posted that here. Too late now. Enjoy what happens next.
I disagree.
stupid |ˈstoōpid|
adjective ( -pider, -pidest)
lacking intelligence or common sense : I was stupid enough to think she was perfect.
dazed and unable to think clearly : apprehension was numbing her brain and making her stupid.
informal used to express exasperation or boredom : she told him to stop messing with his stupid painting.
Pretty sure that qualifies this question as a stupid one. What you input into google will vary by school, but let me do one for you:

i don't think it's a stupid question either. If you think it's so dumb, the best thing you can do is ignore it, rather than flame or exile him to the 'stupid questions' thread. You're just making it difficult for others to ask their honest on-the-fence questions, instead of what you really want, which is to incite them to think about their questions before asking.
Although it's stupid to think some guy would respond with the exact schedule for every school, some people here are familiar with the holiday schedules for admissions offices from last year's cycle and could give him specific answers.
I noticed that in last year's thread for a particular medical school, acceptances and e-mails were being sent during the winter recess period of the medical/graduate school's academic calendar, so your little "google animation" is not always the case. Some admissions offices even work on the weekend.

Thanks. Yeah, I'll definitely admit I could've been more specific with my query though. In particular, I'm wondering about california schools (UCSF, UCLA, UCSD), which possibly function on the same sort of schedule, and Harvard. I recently sent an appeal to UCSF, so I presume this would matter in terms of their one month response time. For the others, I'm trying to see what the best timing of an update letter might be.
