We don't have to wait for 01/01/2101 to get an interesting postmark!!!
On March 14, 2015 we can get a cool postmark a.k.a. pi or 3.1415? and if you get the time thrown in there it can be 3.141592653 or March 14, 2015 at 9:26:53. Cool huh?

What about 5/10/15? Too bad there are no star shaped recent stamps (at least that I know of)

ROD, It shouldn't be too hard to find something related to Archimedes and/or Pi.

I just realized that March 14th falls on a Saturday...post offices in many countries are closed on Saturdays.
