We've had a passel of "binary days" recently - 1/01/11, 1/10/11, 1/11/11, and everybody from the comix to Facebook are all a-twitter about "Gee, we won't have another binary day 'til _November_!
Gasp!
Anybody remember 1961?
The first upside-down year since 1881, and THE LAST UPSIDE-DOWN YEAR UNTIL
6009!!!!!!!!!Just felt like sharing this tidbit. ;-)
Happy day after the latest "binary day!"
Cheers! Rich

I bet you used to do special calculations on those old 4 func calculators and get them to spell swear words

OK, you win, hands down! That's not only upside-down, but a palindrome! (then again, so is 1881, but still...)
Thanks! Rich
My brother once showed me a string of calculations that answered the question, "What would Dolly Parton be without silicone" (or some such), and the answer was 55378008. ;-)
My Dad (RIP) once showed me one about "who profits from so many low-MPG cars?" where the answer was 71077345.
Cheers! Rich
Incorrect!! We'll have another binary day on 10/1/11, another on 10/10/11, and yet another on 10/11/11.
