At first...I thought this was another article about Sarah PALIN!

>>Aziz Inan, a University of Portland electrical engineering professor, has been studying this phenomenon and speaks with great enthusiasm

This is about as exciting as writing a book on the “multiply by 9” phenonenom. Must be great to be a university professor with nothing but free time on your hands.

[Skooz]

Aziz Inan, a University of Portland electrical engineering professor, has been studying this phenomenon and speaks with great enthusiasm as he describes the history of palindrome dates.

Probably the only dates the good professor is familiar with.

Compare and contrast to the anti-Palin drone, which is bass-ackwards no matter which way you look at it.

Before 2001, he excitedly pointed out in an interview yesterday, the most recent was in 1308, since days of the month never exceed 31.

Last palindrome of last millennium:

• 09/31/1390

First palindromes of this millennium:

• 10/02/2001
• 01/02/2010
• 11/02/2011

When my sister was little we would tease her, “Anna is a palindrome, Anna is a palindrome.” She would cry and run to my Mom and tell her we were teasing her.
We would reply that technically we weren’t teasing her, Anna really is a palindrome. My Mom never thought it was funny.

[j-damn]

Oh boy! Let’s all CELEBRATE. Let’s all get drunk and act like idiots again—quick, to the Hallmark Store!

But srsly, who gives an actual crap? Dates are completely arbitrary.
