The Magic date number

Today's date is generating a bit of interest. The 12-12-12 thing appears to fascinate people. There is much talk about how we'll never see that particular line-up again in our lifetimes. That's true - as far as it goes. For the majority of us it IS true, but consider; if you have a child under the age of 12 months or so (and a couple of people I know actually have), then if they live to be 101, they will see the 12-12-12 again in 2112. Considering the increase in life-span over the last hundred years, that last is a distinct possibility.
Of course, for the Saskias, the 12-12-12 thing will happen many times. To find out why that is, you'll have to read the books.
