Happy New Year/ Decade !

All the best to all the best - here's hoping 2020 is a great year and the start of a great decade

For those of us who had a bad year, i hope the new one is better. For those of us who had a good year, I hope 2020 continues that trend.

Happy new year to overseas Dwellars! I plan to be entirely asleep for the domestic countdown, so the rest of you will just have to wait until morning...

I think it might be the last year of the old decade? 1-10, 11-20, 21-30 etc....?

I found this instructional video on how to open a Champagne bottle. It seems to be a lost technique. They don't make cork poppers like that anymore. Thought I'd share...

Sunday's date is a rare palindrome that hasn't happened in over 900 years

Sunday is shaping up to be a unique day for reasons other than the Super Bowl and Groundhog Day: It's also a rare palindrome.

While various forms of palindrome dates are fairly common, 02/02/2020 has the unique distinction of reading the same backward and forward when written out in eight digits in multiple date systems, according to University of Portland professor Aziz Inan. ...

… For starters, it's an eight-digit palindrome: 02022020. Many palindrome dates are only symmetrical if you write the date with seven digits (1-10-2011) — or in some cases even fewer (9-10-19).

But even more rare, according to Inan, is that Sunday's date is an international palindrome: It works whether you write the date as "Month/Day/Year" or "Day/Month/Year," as many countries do.

Inan calls such dates "ubiquitous palindromes," and there won't be another one for 101 years. After that, you'll have to wait until March 3, 3030.

According to Inan's calculations, the last such palindrome date to occur was 11/11/1111 – more than 900 years ago. ...

While she already knew this, I tricked Pete into thinking about it more. Her brain loves a pattern.

Hat tip to Standupmaths; there's even more. It's a palindrome (33) days into the year, and there are a palindrome (333) days left in the year after it.
