HA! Indeed

To quote the article :

Quote:We’ll only have to wait another 101 years for 12/12/2121, but the next one after that comes on March 3, 3030.

I don't suppose there'll be many HP Calculator collectors in 3030 -- maybe HP Calculator archaeologists Or maybe they'll all be digitized and uploaded into holographic memory, if you've read Arthur C. Clarke's "3001 : The Final Odyssey" ( Don't worry about spoilers if you haven't read the book )

Regards,

Jonathan

I'll bear that in mind on 2021-12-02.

BTW, Portuguese, Spanish and Catalan have a special word for a palindromic number: capicua (in Spanish spelled capicúa), from Catalan “cap i cua” (head and tail). I only learned that word today, after hearing it on TV. Live and learn...

I'll bear it in mind nearly 10 months earlier than you on 12/02/2021

Yesterday's date palindrome was special because it was valid in any date setting DMY MDY YMD

Code:

   __   __   __   __   __   __   __   __
  | /|  __| | /|  __|  __| | /|  __| | /|
  |/_| |__ .|/_| |__ .|__  |/_| |__  |/_|
