If you have a fascination for numbers, maybe this here, that I got in my mailbox may interest you.
"As the clock ticks over from 8:01PM on Wednesday, February 20th, 2002, time will (for sixty seconds only) read in perfect symmetry. To be more precise: 20:02, 20/02, 2002.
"It is an event which has only ever happened once before, and is something which will never be repeated. The last occasion that time read in such a symmetrical pattern was long before the days of the digital watch (or the 24-hour clock): 10:01AM, on January 10, 1001.
"And because the clock only goes up to 23.59, it is something that will never happen again."
