Just here in the backwards US. In most countries, that date would be 19/9/19.

Very cool Dave!

Btw, the last ten days have been palindrome days: 9.11.19, 9.12.19 etc (a fun fact brought to you by my friend Bev, from facebook).

Darn. Missed the big moment by 12 minutes and 24:25:26:27:28 etc.

Still time to see it on the west coast ;)

I know! Me too. I tried to post so that the time stamp would show, but I guess that it's not the way the bbs works. lol.

I realize it’s just a “thing,” but it’s cool, nonetheless. :)

If you hit it, the timestamp will show in a while- like maybe an hour or so. Good Luck.

I quit worrying about this kind of stuff after 1961 -the last year that reads the same upside down. Or punching the numbers 7734 on a calculator and turning it over. It didn't take much to amuse me. :)

There was an ancient joke done with a calculator, something about who profits most when this many gallons of gas are manufactured from this many barrels of crude oil by this many refineries, or some such. After multiplying all the math together, the answer is 71077345.

It doesn’t work on a computer keyboard, but in LCD characters on a calculator, when you turn it upside down, it cleverly spells out SHELL OIL.

Low tech IT humor... ;)
