Flooding

With all the TV stations constantly broadcasting the flood situation I was wondering what would push the "flooding" off the front page would it be:

The Significance of 11/11/11Based on past calendar dates such as 10/10/10, or October 10, 2010, no significant or unusual phenomenon occurs simply because of a date that has the same numbers in a sequence.

The numerical sequence of November 11 holds a special significance in the binary numeral system, which is the base-2 number system that represents numeric values using two symbols, 0 and 1. The date of November 11 has a binary number of 111110 where it has a decimal equivalent of 62 in the year 2010, and a binary number of 111111 with a decimal equivalent of 63 in the year 2011.

The number eleven has a special characteristic in mathematics where it is the sixth prime number. It contains some interesting peculiarities where the number eleven times itself equals a palindrome:

(2 digits) 11 x 11 = 121

(6 digits) 111111 x 111111 = 12345654321

(9 digits) 111111111 x 111111111 = 12345678987654321page would it be:

or would it be:

11 minutes past 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month 2011 as broadcast by DTAC to signify Rememberance Day.

or could it be:

A Birthday on such a day may have a significant holistic meaning according to the Dali Lamma

None of the above I am afraid The arrival of Loy Katrong has pushed the "flooding" to one side as the Thai populace celebrate this yearly festival with plenty of water about and of course the used Katrongs adding to the floating debris, life continues on in the land of smiles, as they say TiT.
