 HISTORIC TIME IN 4D

 At 8.02 pm on February 20 this year, there 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 8.01 pm 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.

 This historic event will never have the same
 poignancy as the 11th hour
 of the 11th day of the 11th month which marks
 Armistice Day, but
 it is an event which has only ever happened
 once before, and is
 something which will never be repeated.

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