Jan. 20th, 2021 is a historic day the likes of which we won't see for centuries to come. No, we're not talking about what's going on in Washington, D.C. We're talking about palindromes.
Today's date - 1/20/2021 - is a palindrome, meaning it reads the same backward as forwards.
A seven-digit palindrome date like this won't happen again for 1,000 years - on Jan. 20th, 3021. But we'll get an eight-digit palindrome on Dec. 2nd - 12/02/2021.
Wednesday's seven-digit palindrome is one of 26 such dates in the 21st century.
