It used to be that these types of dates happened every 11 years. 6/6/66, 7/7/77, etc. Then all of a sudden the millennium hit and every year a cool day happened. 1/1/1, 2/2/2, etc. Next year we will have an 11/11/11 and the year after that will be 12/12/12. But after that, what happens? It all stops. Well, at least until the year 2100. During that year we will have our first 1/1/1 in over 90 years!
Anyway, if you like numbers. Or even if you don't. Try to find some reason to write the date down today. Numerically it is unusual.
Actually, I realized after posting this blog that we will be back to the 11 year cycle. So after 1/1/11, then 2/2/22 will be the next big event.
