DATELINE WITH NO REAL SIGNIFICANCE

by Hazed

This morning, at three minutes and four seconds after two o'clock, the time and the date aligned into a pattern which was very pleasing to the eye. It was:

02:03:04 05/06/07

This will never happen again.

But don't panic, it doesn't mean the end of the world, because it has absolutely no real significance. It's just a coincidence. The sun won't explode, ending all life and civilization as we know it.

In fact, it's only a pleasing pattern if you write your dates the American way, with the month followed by the day - in the UK, where we do things the other way around, the pattern won't show up until next month, on the 5th of June!

Still, it's one of those cool things that make you smile, like watching your car odometer click over from 99999 to 100000.
