      I realised at the weekend that I was born closer to the end of World War2 than to today. That is so scary, especially as growing up WW2 seemed such an age away.

                      I was born closer to Australia than England. But I'm definitely not a criminal.

                          So true. But so did all of the other intervening years. But I'm after what 1987 and 2013 share, that doesn't exist for all of the other years in between. :)

                            I did this same thing about nine years ago. I simply wrote "anniversary" on the calendar and my wife spent the entire day trying to figure out what it was the anniversary of.

                                Is it that 1987 + 2013 = 4000?
