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.

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]

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]

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.
