A little puzzle....

[shabbird]

Is it something to to with number sequences within the date and time?

nothing to do with time.. if i say anymore it will be obvious..
all i can say if what happenned in 1961 wont happen again in 4000 years

hint...The year is important

IanSF.. yes you did have the correct answer..

The year's date reads the same when turned upside down. That will not happen again until 6009

Oh yeah! lol I wouldn't've got that.

I didnt either thats why tried to distract from the year.. mentioning the 60s etc..

This is similar to previous one.. might be easy or really hard.
Mathematics could be useful..

A man wanted to enter an exclusive club but did not know the password that was required. He waited by the door and listened. A club member knocked on the door and the doorman said, "twelve." The member replied, "six " and was let in. A second member came to the door and the doorman said, "six." The member replied, "three" and was let in. The man thought he had heard enough and walked up to the door. The doorman said ,"ten" and the man replied, "five." But he was not let in.

What should have he said? and why?

Bloody insomnia. I have to be at work in three hours. Anyway, Shabbird, after scrawling numbers on a piece of paper for a while, it all suddenly became clear. The answer he should've given is 'three'. The members are not, as we are led to believe, simply dividing the doorman's number in half. They are telling him how many letters are in the numbers he's saying. Am I right or am I right? lol

well done.. yes you are right.. Three. The doorman lets in those who answer with the number of letters in the word the doorman says
