Isn't the date 2/20/02? We would have been "symmetric" on 2/02/02 -- 20:02, 2/02/02, 2002.

I met a guy with tourette's syndrome who would curse when he felt claustrophobic (he worked construction), and in between the swearing he'd interject "2 2 2", so he'd be yelling "2 2 f--- piss s--- 2 2 f---" whenever he was lowered into a hole or something.

numerology... finding significance in numbers...

from dictionary.com: The study of the occult meanings of numbers and their supposed influence on human life.

moderately sarcastic invitation to the numerologist inside everyone -the one who feels some slightly deeper satisfaction at the new millenium than they did at new year's 1998 or 2002, who pays attention to the odometer rolling over to a bunch of zeroes - to divine the meaning of the Big Symmetry Moment and make some predictions about what it will do to the state of humanity.

now quit pickin at me to explain every damn thing i say. it's 930 am, damn you! damn you all! you will all turn to cinders if i think about you really hard at the BIG MOMENT! BWAAAHAAAAHAAA!

**whitak24** · 02-19-2002, 07:40 AM

i'll have to set an alarm for 8:01 on the 20th so i can be sure to observe this never-to-be-duplicated moment

actually, i do find stuff like that fascinating for no other explainable reason than that i'm a geek

**BigJon** · 02-19-2002, 10:02 AM

my mom sent me that in an email....I knew there was a reason why I deleted it...

I find that the Advanced Search under the Members button is better suited.

i just didn't see any "occult meaning" there is all. (occult meaning "hidden," for anyone who wants to attach meaning to the actual study or practice). i didn't know if my personality would change, the earth would blow up, i'd win the lottery, my coke would turn to pepsi, or whatever. by what you're saying, it's just a curiosity...numerology is more than about curiosities

don't even get me started as to how this event is entirely more rare than the rolling over of the odometer

anyhow, i don't pick on you any more than anyone else, proportionately, that i want to know the meaning of what's said or need clarification. most people just answer the question
