By: JeffersonGalt.Com In a note to be published on his website today at 12.12.12 21:12:12 GMT, romantic novelist Galt says " In a couple of hours, it will be one of those times I enjoy, just because they are there: 12.12.12 12:12 . " And Starfish will, by then, be in LHR already transiting for her onward flight and, because it's winter and the UK is using GMT, we will each send to the other a text message with that time-stamp. And, just as parted lovers look at the moon on a given night each year, we will be together in that moment, even though we are apart. "But that moment will be tinged with reflection for there won't be another time when all the digits align for almost a hundred years and Starfish and I won't see it. It's a sobering realisation that, much as we want to believe in forever, for humans forever is finite, even if it is indefinite. " The next time all the numbers are the same, it will be even more special because every digit will be the same - and it will be as if time has stood still for an incalculably small moment. " And so, in a few decades, people will wonder, they will try to take photographs, as they watch a clock click (or whatever it will do) over to show 00.00.00 00:00:00:00: Links to all of Galt's books, both in paperback and e-book are at http://www.jeffersongalt.com Notes for editors: *The precise time/ date is not precise! It depends on Amazon.Com's server time which is set at US Pacific Standard Time.
