Numeric Sequencial Conversion

This event was predicted by both Edgar Cayce and the Great Karnac. When the Numeric Sequecial Conversion occurs it causes perfectly normal and sane individuals to do bizaar and crazy things like... Spend lots of money on sailboats and quit their jobs!

Well yes... but unless there are some pretty remarkable medical breakthroughs you, and I, will be long gone. Sorry to break the bad news.

People with too much time on their hands

This from a friend who ponders such things( I guess sitting at an inquiry for the last year plus drives pepole to some interesting hobbies!) "On the British system, that happens next month on the 4th of May: 01:02:03 04/05/06 Remember the old story, much better in making the point than in being true, that D-Day occurred on June 6 so neither the Brits or Americans could arrive on the wrong date. On the Julian calendar, depending on how they write dates, it could happen once in 11 days and perhaps again 29 days later. And it will definitely happen again in 3006, but I don't expect to be here to check which system they're using then."

What gives?

Jim, you live in Maryland! You should be out sailing. Did you come up with this while enjoying a drink in a nice quiet anchorage? I sure hope so. Tim R.

People are already bitching about my tan..... Have had two parties on the dock and only two of us have splashed our boats. This is going to be a tough year..... Hope my doctor doesn't find out. Jim S/V Java
