Useless trivia...

[Panama Red]

Received this tidbit in yesterday's email. Interesting but totally useless!:D

"On Wednesday of this week, April 5th, at two minutes and three seconds after 1:00 am, the time and date will be
01:02:03 04/05/06.

That won't ever happen again."

Now back to our regularly scheduled program.:D

[glc]

Sure it will - in another 100 years.

Yeah, our math teacher told our class that today - I though it was kind of cool.

Of course that kid in the back of the class yelled out: "Does that give us another occasion to drink?!"

[rjfvillarosa]

It won't happen here because we put the day before the month :D but it might happen on the 4th of May.



Oh No :( I am going to miss it, I just remembered I travel back to the USA on the 24th of this month, so I miss it in the States and then miss it again in the UK. :eek:

[Panama Red]

Sure it will - in another 100 years.

Sequential yes, but not beginning with 1.

Someone sent this piece of trivia to an email list at work, and this was one of the replys:

Speaking of things that will never happen again...

Last minute will never happen again...

Yesterday won't either...

If we're celebrating non-repeating phenomena, you should start celebrating all the time.

WHOOO! PARTY 24/7! WHOOO!

Okay, I'm done now. :D

It will happen in 2106, 2206 ..... 3006.....

[Panama Red]

It will happen in 2106, 2206 ..... 3006.....

So, can I just delete my post from above? George is right - again!:o

[blue60007]

Ahahaha, that's awesome.

Hmm, why is it never tomorrow?

[David M]

Now what would that date be in binary? Anyone still have the converter?

[HAL9000]

Who needs a converter... although I did leave out the : between sections of time and / between dates.

0011000000110001001100000011001000110000001100110010000000110000001101000011000000110101001100000011 0110

[peekaboo]

it will also happen on May 4th since where i'm from the date format is dd/mm/yy (which seems so much more logical to me).

[bigandy]

You know how I know you're a robot, HAL?

You think in binary.

-translation- I also think in hex... ok.. that one took me a little longer to remember as it's been a while since I've played with that.... and that date format would then be;

3031303230332030343035303600

I probably wouldn't have noticed this until it was too late!! *Thanks the internet for places like pcmech*.

[Alaron]

And for those of us who sleep at night, we can just wait for 1:02:03 PM on 4/5/06.

:)

[Kareeser]

Happy 1:02:03, 04/05/06, guys!!

[Stuey]

Nooooooooooooooooooooooo I Missed It!!!
