More Wacky Time Stuff

As I logged on the computer this afternoon, I noticed it was 1234 on 5/6/07. As I pondered that, I remembered a post Retired Geezer put up over at Blog Idaho a couple of weeks ago, when he pointed out that earlier this morning, it was 02:03:04 on 05/06/07.

This got me to thinking (it's a Sunday afternoon, so I'm not thinking any lofty thoughts) and I realized that we're pretty much going to have sequential time combinations come up quite frequently until about 2012. After that, we'll have to wait every 11 years or so for "amazing" sequences (like 2222 on 2/22/22). Of course, it won't be until 200 years after than when we'll get the "mother of all 2's" time: 2222:22 on 2/22/2222.

Don't forget that for those who write dates in the British manner (more people than use the American style), it will be 02:03:04 on 05/06/07 early in the morning of 5 June.
