12/12/12 (and other odd dates)
Today is a day that comes only once every 100 years -- 12/12/12. Here are some intriguing dates that have been the source of fascination and speculation.
9/29/29 – Math lovers share an affinity for palindromic calendar dates, which can be read symmetrically backward and forward in their numerical date format. But Sept. 29, 1929 must have been a banner day for number crunchers as it's one of the few dates that have more than one palindromic form: 9/29, 9/29/29 and 9/29/1929.
