Do the planets align too?
 
Stolen from thesneeze.com:

This Wednesday night, shortly after 1 AM, the time and date will be 01:02:03 04/05/06. If you can't stay awake for that one, catch the repeat that afternoon.

:cool:

If he really wanted to entertain us, he'd eat something gross at both times.

Personally, this pseudo event bores me.

Nothing can compare to the gloriousness that was 1:23:45 p.m. on June 7, 1989 (or 1:23:45 6/7/89). It was only improved for having happened in the middle of the second-year chemistry class I was teaching at the time. The geek-out quotient was very high that hour.

I don't remember much of 1989. What the hell was I doing then?

Prudence 04-04-2006 09:11 AM

I think 01:02:03 04/05/06 is much cleaner than 01:23:45 06/07/89 -- although since I prefer the day month year format I'm waiting for May 4th.

I'm most looking forward to 11:11:11 on 11/11/11.

When the moon is in the seventh house
and Jupiter aligns with Mars...

Nope, Alex's example rules. Using all possible digits is the max, baby.

Cadaverous Pallor 04-04-2006 10:26 AM

Wouldn't 12:34:56 on 7/8/90 be the maximum? Although I guess the zero could be place at the beginning of Alex's.

I guess in the UK it would had to have been on July 6th, 1989 to do 1:23:45 6/7/89. They do dd/mm/yy.

Yes, I'd say it is almost as good (though slightly odd to have the 0 at the end), but most importantly is that it would be in the middle of summer vacation. Notable moments during the summer don't count since hardly anyone is around.
