I apoligize for this trivial, totally unrelated to RV's item, but it is interesting to me.

RV-8 N1 6IRL Almost ready to fly "S-n-F is delaying me for a week."
On Wednesday of next week, at two minutes and three seconds after 1:00
in the morning, the time and date will be 01:02:03 04/05/06.
That won't ever happen again.

Sure it will - it already happened in your lifetime, and will
happen again this year!
Not everyone displays dates the way it is done in the USA.
For example, in most of the world, dates are displayed
Day-Month-Year, not Month/Day/Year like is done in the
USA.
So, at the same time you mentioned above, on May 4 of this
year, you'll have 01:02:03 04-05-06 in most of the world.
Also, in some countries, they display the date Year-Month-Day
(my personal favorite), so in on May 6th, 2004, this
sequence has already occurred.
I'm sure there are other ways people display dates in
their region that would have equally interesting sequences.
I really liked this date: 02:02:02 02-02-2002
I hope I'm around to see 02:02:02 02-02-2022!
