The next one won't be until December 12th, 2121, but we all know we won't experience this.

I had to give a presentation on November 19, 1999.

I opened the presentation by pointing out that was the last day that all the digits of the date were odd until November 11, 3111.

Also, the prior day that all the digits of the date were even was August 8, 888 and the next would be February 2, 2000.

Thank you for bringing that up. I am so pleased to know I have experienced such a day!

The last one was 2011-11-02.

Sunday's date was 2020-02-02 (still a palindrome).

The next one will be 2021-12-02.

The one after that will be 2030-03-02.

Please refer to
ISO 8601.

Once again, the Media gets it all wrong.
