Today is a never-to-be-repeated in our lifetimes phenomenon

12-12-12

Today's "year" digits are at the top month number. After today, we shall never see a day, month, and year with the same pair of digits.

We will still get number pattern dates like 12-13-14.

We lost a while back, the chance at same number dates like 11.11.11, because thats the only one possible.
