Hexidecimal and binary bring back awful memories of PLC classes. Gah! I will always be better at abstraction. Those conversions were hard on my little brain.
999? Looks a LOT like an ex-girlfriend's birthmark.

I don't worry about deadlines too much, either.

Correction: The wait will be only 88 years until 01/01/2101.libratune wrote:Isn't 10/10/10 coming up next year, followed by 11/11/11 and 12/12/12?![]()
After that, it will indeed be a long wait until 01/01/3001 -- 988 years, give or take a few weeks.
Still, don't hold your breath . . .

Re: 09/09/09
But it wasn't that date to the folks living at that time, so does it count?There was a true 09/09/09, once upon a time (exactly 2K years ago!).
