Perpetual calendar science question
It occurred to me that at any given moment the exact dial configuration on my 5320g will not be seen again for a very long time - maybe a lifetime. So here’s a question that may only interest me. When will be the next time we see:
Sun Jul 11 Moon = Full +17 Leap year indicator = 1 |

Sunday July 11th 2348 is the next time there is a full moon on that day/date combination and it is also a leap year. So will happen in 327 years time. You could argue for Sunday July 11th 2128 as it is a leap year, but the time for full moon on this day is 23:53 (UTC-8) so can only be seen in that time zone ie LA, Vancouver, Tijuana |

That’s such a unique thought. Very interesting.

Her: What are you thinking about?
Him: Nothing. Her: (I’ll bet he is thinking about other women.) Her: Tell me. Him: It occurred to me that at any given moment the exact dial configuration on my 5320g will not be seen again for a very long time - maybe a lifetime. |

To be truthful to the OP Jim was just answering an unusual question that he thought no one else would be bothered with .
However in reply to the poster above whose quip is unfounded and designed to cause me distress I would say: If my wife asked me what I was thinking about I would say "Of course I am only thinking about you my darling.... I would love to buy you those $50 earrings so long as I can have the 5172G that we talked about" |
