Once-in-a-millenium party

At three minutes and four seconds after 2 AM on the 6th of May
this year, the time and date will be 02:03:04 05/06/07.


This will not happen again until the next millenium.

This will occur after the Midnight On The Dragon Run. Anyone up for a party/celebration of this unique event?

Although, the chance of it happening right after the Midnight run at MOTD probably will not happen for another 700 years.

and don't forget to celebrate 12:11:10 on September 8th this year!

You can come up with a zillion of these "never gonna happen again" occurrences, but every single second of every day is also never gonna happen again.

And don't forget to celebrate 7:07:07 on July 7th this year too! And if you miss it, just wait until August 8th next year and you can celebrate 8:08:08.

I received a similar email yesterday mielnicki, and was also called a party pooper.

Trying to put a little diplomacy in play: 02:03:04 05/06/07 will not happen again until the next millenium.

The other dates posted in this thread aren't the same(so this won't happen next year-that is a different event-nor will they be repeated for a millenium).

So everyone seems to be correct.

Nothing like being on both sides of a debate.

So, we have come full circle. Let me re-iterate....(sigh)

"At three minutes and four seconds after 2 AM on the 6th of May

Yeah, and in an attempt to revive (hopefully, unsuccessfully) another dead horse,
Did the new millenium start on Jan 1 2000, or 2001, or maybe 1999?

F...k it; who wants pie?

Being of Asian decent, I understand that significance people place in these unique instances of time. For example, I have 3 weddings in my circle of friends that will occur on 7/7/7. They felt it would be lucky to have it only on that day. I brought to their attention that unless they combined their weddings, at best they're doomed to get only a third of their friends and family. Whoops! Not so lucky anymore!!!
My point, waiting for that one perfect moment, you waste more time in anticipation and planning. Better to spend that time motoring...

Maybe you should change that reminder alarm to go of 4 minutes and 56 seconds before the party!
