    I found this on another forum but I wonder what you guys think about it...

    This year we will experience 4 unusal dates contianing these combinations, which may seem eerie or odd on it's own, but did you know that if you take the last 2 digits of your birthyear, and add the age that you will be this year, you get 111?

    how is this possible ? Shocked

    This is not exactly accurate. If I was born in 2001, I add 1+10 and I get 11. Anyone who was born between 1900 and 2000 will get 111. Anyone who was born in 2000 or after will get 11. Anyone who was born before 1900 will get 211. Next year the numbers will add to 212, 112, and 12 respectively. The year after it's 213,113, and 13.

    Basically, all this little trick is doing is adding the total number of years from 1900 to 2011, which is obviously going to add up to 111. The last 2 digits of your birth year (assuming you're born between 1900 and 1999) is always going to equal the amount of years you were born after 1900. Your age is the additional years that have passed since that birth year. Don't know if that makes sense... Blink
