The end of series dates 12/12/12

Unless I have my math wrong, we're not going to have another series of dates where the day, month, and year numbers are the same.  I don't think there's a 13th month ... WILD!  In fact, this is the last major numerical date series in this century.  I love firsts and I love lasts.

Apparently today was supposed to be a great day based on the numbers per Huffington Post.
