Date puzzle




On October 2, 2001, the date in MMDDYYYY format was a
palindrome (same forwards as backwards).That is 10/02/2001.
When was the last date that this occurred on before year 2001?

    arun - that is not a panindrome. it would have to be 12/19/9121 which has not occurred yet and anyway is before 10/02/2001

    I made the same mistake but September doesn't have 31 days (except maybe in Evan's calendar). I think the best is 08/31/1380.
