Until the 33rd century (which starts in the year 3200), of course, after which it won't happen again.

Of course, if you figure it based on month/day/year, as most do in the US, there hasn't been one of these for most of a millenium. The most recent would have been New Year's Eve in the year 1231, and there won't ever be another.

Keep in mind, all of my highly scientific calculations are based on a bad day at work and two beers, so I'm sure someone will correct me here...lol.

Actually, doing it my way

, the 20th of January 2001 isn't a palendrome at all, it's 20/01/2001, a palendrome reads the same backwards as it does forwards [img]tongue.gif[/img]
