Did you see it?
Here are some fun facts:
Earlier today, palindrome lovers rejoiced in the fact that at 1:21:02 am, they celebrated the second which marks a date-time combination which will be read the same both backwards and forwards. 2012-12-12 1:21:02 = 201212-1-212102.
Number crunchers have a profound respect for the number 12, mainly because of its divisibility capabilities. After all, it can divided into halves, thirds, fourths, sixths, and twelfths.
December 12, 2012 is exactly 6 years, 6 months, 6 days from June 6, 2006, or 06/06/06.
last sequential date
12/12/12 is repeating, not sequential. 11/12/13 14:15:16.17… may be the next sequential date.

To me 12 is significant, because this coming Shabbos shall be the 5th Shabbos in a row that we read the Haftoro from the Trei Ossor = the 12 prophets. Please note, I called them “the 12 prophets”, and not “the 12 minor prophets”. Each book may be short, but these were 12 unbelievable major people, and absolutely not minor in any way nor manner. It is a Bizoyon to even contemplate utilizing an appellation of “minor”.
Not so long ago, we were analyzing 12 births of 12 tribes.
Were they called miner prophets cause they spent so much time in caves?
I actually have thought about this (though ti is a secular date).There will never again in this millenium be such a date.

I think the term “minor” is in reference to the length of their books, not their personal stature.
How about instead of “minor prophets” we use “minor prophetic books?”

to learn the 12 Prophets visit the OU Nach Yomi page or simply procure the 12 cassettes that Rav Berel Wein put out on the 12 Prophets:- 1 entire cassette on each Novie.

That was my point. There will be nine more times in this millenium when the (2-digit-year) date will be 12/12/12.

Rosh HaShana will be 07/01/01. Rosh Chodesh Nissan will be 01/01/01. Wolf – I’m surprised you didn’t post the correction.
Health – Happy Birthday til 120plus in the best of health and circumstances!
