Time Goes On

As the clock ticks over from 8:01PM on Wednesday, February 20th, 2002, time will (for sixty seconds only) read in perfect symmetry. To be more precise: 20:02, 20/02, 2002. It is an event which has only ever happened once before, and is something which will never be repeated. The last occasion that time read in such a symmetrical pattern was long before the days of the digital watch (or the 24-hour clock): 10:01AM, on January 10, 1001. And because the clock only goes up to 23.59, it is something that will never happen again.

Wow. I'll never wash my clock again. I still remember where I was for 12:34:56 PM on 7/8/90. I was working at Adventureland, manning the Crossbow game. Weird. I wonder what I'll be doing on the 20th? If the whole world blogged it at the same time, would it blow up?
