Experience the rare occasion!


OK, A friend of mind just mentioned about a great phenomenon that will be happening soon. He told me not to be asleep around 2 past 1 in the morning on May 4th 2006 or else I will miss the precious moment.
He didn't mention what so important on that exact time and that I have to be aware.
Being busy myself, I said OK and reminded myself to search on google about the rare occasion. I did the search to no avail. He then prompted me again (owh, we're chatting via Yahoo Messenger, by the way.. eh, did I mention that I was busy? *grin*) asking whether I've found out what's so special on the time he mentioned before. I suspiciously guessed that it probably is his birthday! Huehehe.. But no, it's not.

Do you know ? That next month on Thursday 4 May 2006, at two minutes and three seconds after 1 O'Clock the time and date will be exactly: 01:02:03 04/05/06. This will never happen again!


Now, that's pretty cool I guess :D

time/date format must be
HH:MM:SS DD/MM/YY
in other words, it did happen for countries where the time/date format is
HH:MM:SS MM/DD/YY

in the other hand, i think it will happen twice a day, if you are using HH12:MM:SS [AM/PM this can be omitted] MM/DD/YY

right? CMIIW please

Yeap. The time format must be HH:MM:SS DD/MM/YY

In the case you mentioned about those countries using time format HH:MM:SS MM/DD/YY then the moment's already happened :)

Twice a day? In the case you mentioned, yes. But it seems that the idea-owner (apa sih Pencetus Ide? :p) use the assumption that our days consist of 24 hours regardless its representation (whether using 12 hours with AMPM or 24 hours format)

Umm? I think u meant DD/MM/YY in ur comment,didn't u? CMIIW again
Thanks loh.. Emang kelewat sama aku soal format2 itu :D
