What is special about 08-08-08 (other than olympics)

Well the date is unique.

Next one comes during 09-09-09, that is next year.

Then 10-10-10.

Then 11-11-11.

Finally 12.12.12 (Kalki Bhagwan and Mayan culture ends here).

So the cycle starts  again on 1-1-1 (if they want to talk about 2101 as 1)

Also interesting thing here on olympics.
