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.

After that, it will indeed be a long wait until 01/01/3001 -- 988 years, give or take a few weeks.
Correction: The wait will be only 88 years until 01/01/2101.
Still, don't hold your breath . . .

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

Really? I lost track of my age in 1979... maybe that's why I missed it
