The only 2 palindromes for this year that I can think of would be the 11th and 22nd of this month.

I am following this date structure: mm-dd-yy.

So 01-11-10 and 01-22-10.

It's reassuring to know I'm not the only one who get's a kick out of these things (when I actually notice them).

That's the day, not the month. The 20th of October, 2010.

Not to nitpick or anything, guys... but those aren't palindromes.

It's all good, though. Just having fun with numbers now, I see. ;)

Hard to come to terms with that date structure. Being from way down south i like the way we say it as : we are in the 20th day of the 1st month 2010 .... Cant see or understand : we are in the 1st month but the 20th day of that month 2010 ....... Has me baffled ;)

Americans do the date weird, so any date written in normal English often looks like a post from the future.

So today is 03/01/2010, which would read as 1st March to anyone in the US.
