What
a moment in time this week!!!!!
At 8.02pm on February 20 this year it will be an historic moment in
time. It will not be marked by the chiming of any clocks or the ringing
of bells, but at that precise time, on that specific date, something
will happen which has not occurred for 1,001 years and will
never happen
again.
As the clock ticks over from 8.01pm on Wednesday, February 20, time
will,for sixty seconds only, read in perfect symmetry 2002,
2002, 2002, or to be more precise - 20:02, 20/02, 2002. The last occasion that time read in such a symmetrical pattern
was long
before the days of the digital watch and the 24-hour clock - at 10.01 am
on January 10, 1001. And because the clock only goes up to 23.59, it is
something that will never happen again.
