The time will be 2002 (military time) on the day of 20/02 (DD/MM) in the year of 2002.

This as only happened one other time and will never happen again.

Depends on how you define the symmetry of numbers. The one time you are referring to was 10:01 on January 10, 1001. However 11:11 on Nov 11, 1111 and 21:12 on Dec 21, 2112 both follow the same symmetry. And if you use a different (non European) date format such as MMD then you open up several other options.

Rush supposedly has a new album coming out, have you heard anything about it? Hopefully they tour again, their concerts are unbelievable.

I'm wondering too...

I think they have gone downhill somewhat since Signals. They are still great but Peart's lyrics have been kind of blah lately.

Here is what I'd like to see/hear... An all instrumental CD (no lyrics). These guys rock musically. Hear 10-12 like YYZ.... I think this would be cool.

I'd like to hear something like that from Pink Floyd as well. I could listen to David G. play the guitar for hours. The guitar solos from Comfortably Numb are still on my list of favorites. And to hear the acoustic version of Mother from the movie The Wall... great stuff.
