An honourable mention of geekery has to go to today’s date. Today is September 9th, 2009. More easily referred to as 9/9/9. And as any mathematician should rapidly spot, 9 / 9 / 9 = 0.111111… Many would also point out that it’s the 252nd day of the year, and 2 + 5 + 2 = 9.

There seem to be a lot of mathematically interesting dates recently…
