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 10.01am on January 10, 1001. And because the clock only
goes up to 23.59, it is something that will never happen again
