That's got a nice symmetry to it.

Happy Groundhogs day.

far as I know, 1961 was the last year to read the same upside down. No idea when it will happen again.

Hang in. 2-22-22 coming up.

Good one!! Regrettably I have far too many miles (years) on the odo for that one, it being my birthday rather than my birthdate

Gawd I'm such a nerd with dates like these and even my odometer. For some brain-addled reason it brings me great pleasure. I'll wake the missus up just to point out some "special" mileage in the car. Mirrored, symmetric, (best!) axisymmetric lately with the twos, whatever is always worth a look regardless of how sleepy you are. (Honey, wake up... why are you questioning life with me?)

Nerds. We're everywhere...

I don't know why, but I think it would be cool to have been born on 2/29, like Frederic in The Pirates of Penzance.

My brother's birthday was yesterday, 02/02/22, and he was born in 1961, making him 61. Lots of cool numerology there.
