As the clock ticks over from 8:01PM on Wednesday,
February 20th, 2002, time will ( for sixty seconds only ) read in perfect symmetry.

To be more precise: 20:02, 20/02, 2002. It is an event which has only ever happened once before, and is something which will never be repeated.

The last occasion that time read in such a symmetrical pattern was long before the days of the digital watch (or the 24-hour clock ): 10:01AM, on January 10, 1001.
And because the clock only goes up to 23.59, it is
something that will never happen again
