01/02/2010 is a Rare One

Postby Neumann Sennheiser » Sat Jan 02, 2010 2:49 pm

Today's date 01/02/2010 is a palindrome: A rare confluence of month, date and year that reads the same backward as forward.
(Mind you, that's the American way of writing it. The Canadian/British 02/01/2010 doesn't work).

The last palindrome date was Oct. 2, 2001. But before that, more than six centuries passed since the numerals last aligned on Aug. 31, 1380.

Don't know when the next one will be. Anyone?
