You might find this interesting. I also posted it on the "time" forum

Only Once for All Time

On Wednesday of this week, at two minutes and three seconds after 1:00 in the
morning, the time and date will be 01:02:03 04/05/06. That won't ever happen
again.

MTW:

at least not till Early May, when it happens in Europe.

and then both will come again in years 2106, 2206, 2306, ...

But nice thought, and it won't happen more than once in many of our lifetimes

Good morning. Where I live its 9am-ish and the sun is shining brightly in a blue, cloudless sky.

04/01/2006 is of interest to me since the Trinity Site was open to view sunup till noon. It is opened the first saturday in April and October.

Have any cafe frequenters been there?

And, thanks for the Ovaltine. It still puts me in mind of Captain Midnight. Some memories never die.

Querry: Why have my daily

Querry:

Why have my daily user averages been going down recently? I have the same 2 computers going 24/7. Is this an indicator that I need to correct a looming problem? Thanks in advance for the advice.

Excuse me, does anyone know

Excuse me, does anyone know the way to the Restaurant at the End of the Universe? Or perhaps the Big Bang Burger Bar... no, the other one. I think I took the wrong turn at Albuquerque.
