Just in case you wanted to know this: On Wednesday of this week, at two minutes and three seconds after 1:00 in the morning, the time and date will be 01:02:03 04/05/06. That won't ever happen again. You may now return to your (normal ?) life.

Unless, of course, you're using the British style of date notation, in which case you'll have to wait until May.
(I have to confess: for the first time EVER, today I checked MOL while at work. This is definitely an addiction!) |

Won't it also work at 1:02:03 PM provided you do not use military time? |

Won't it happen again in a hundred years? 2106 will be abbreviated to 06. Looks like it'll happen every hundred years. |

The most complete occurrence of linear time will be at 12:34:56 07/08/09. Repeated at the PM, for the slugabeds. Z |

Another Fun Fact: Last night at 11:39 EDT marked precisely one week since my patooted ex-employee Soda was exiled by the ever-vigilant Mr. Dave Ross to "Gardening Leave" for a term of one week. For the record, he has yet to be reinstated. Yet another Fun Fact: I'm about to do a cannonball into my pool. Enjoy the snow, and go in peace. --The Oracle of MOL

(You forgot to factor in daylight savings time.) Caught this by accident of looking at the right (ahem) time.
