Will this instant pass you by unnoticed ?

For a brief instant in time today it will be -

11:11:11 :11:11:11


A similiar one aint gonna occur for quite a long time

[jackthehat]

No........That'll be the *first time*.

[China Doll]

Probably.

they should have rolling reports of it hitting round the world, the way they did with the millennium

[rojash]

OK, here's the rolling report from Greece:

I missed it.

[ChuckFickens]

Rest assured that correspondents from all around the globe are standing by to miss it too.

Re the Mayans. Does the actual date matter? I mean both are before Christmas, so whichever is right, there is no need to buy presents.

If you use three-letter abbreviations for months, then I believe 23-47-59 on the 08-FEB (20)16 will be the next time all different hexadecimal digits are used.

I'll get my (poppy-embroidered) coat swiftly....

[jackthehat]

I wonder if there will be any folks 'making a point' of posting on AB during the traditional 2 -minutes silence........?

[BertiWooster]

Did you miss it ?

[jackthehat]

Yes........I didn't know which clock to trust :o(

[BertiWooster]

Never mind - if i'd known I could have lent you one of my atomic clocks :-)

I was having a shower. But I didn't sing or anything.
