\nThe only popular use that I know of this date, 08-08-08, is the 29th Olympics in China. Having its open ceremony starting at 8:08pm on this day as a sign of good fortune as the chinese character for 8 represents.\n<\/p>\n
\nI wonder what other implications are there?\n<\/p>\n
\nThe frequency of similar occurence seems to be a little less than a yearly thing, so it's not too rare: We have 01-01-01 to 12-12-12 and 2-22-22, 2-2-22 to 9-9-99 every ten years or so.\n<\/p>\n
\nWhat is the significance of each of these? Or are they merely dependent on the interpretations of the beholders?\n<\/p>\n
