1662 cannot be written forwards and backwards the same. This pattern will continue for 109 more numbers.

1663 Ottoman empire goes to war with the Holy Roman empire. The Turks take the fortress at Érsekújvár, but with 2,000 men under his command, the Viceroy of Croatia defeats a much larger force of 8,000 Ottoman soldiers in the Battle at Jurjeve Stijene, near the modern town of Otočac. The Croatians lost ten soldiers killed; the Ottoman invasion force suffered over 1,500 deaths.

I see there is a fellow man of culture on this site. Survivor might just be my favorite show to watch. New season just came out by the way!

1665 AD - In England, Dr. Richard Lower performs the first blood transfusion between animals.
The Second Anglo-Dutch War begins. England installs a municipal government in New York City (the former Dutch settlement of New Amsterdam).
The Great Plague forces the closure of the University of Cambridge, where Isaac Newton is a student. Newton retires to his home in Lincolnshire for safety, and stays there for two years. During this time alone, Newton will make groundbreaking discoveries in mathematics, calculus, mechanics and optics, and lay the foundations for his books Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica, and Optiks.
Robert Hooke's Micrographia is published in London, first applying the term 'cell' to plant tissue, which he discovered first in cork, then in living organisms, using a microscope.
Battle of Mbwila: Portuguese forces defeat and kill King António I of Kongo.

1666 The Great Fire of London begins as a blaze in a bakery owned by Thomas Farriner on Pudding Lane, near London Bridge. Over a period of four days, the fire destroyed more than 13,000 buildings (including Old St Paul's Cathedral), leaving only six people dead and at least 80,000 destitute and homeless.

1668 is the actual approximate number of days of Survivor contestants if you include the winner reveal live show (which I do not)
Each takes 2.5 hours and 2.4 hours times 10 is one day and 40 season of it equals four extra days

1669 is the year of the painter Rembrandt's death.
Happy to see other survivor fans in the forum :)

There have ben 1670 posts on this forum, the most of any

[DarthPorg36]

We've recently broken this record, with 1671 posts on this thread now

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

The above post is factually incorrect as it is actually 1672. Educate yourself.

[burner]

NO NO NO NO NO!!! All of you are wrong! It's 1673!

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

Burner seems to be suffering from delusions. Theres a psych ward on 1674 Elm Clove Street

[Ferdack]

I sense that this is becoming the new "Last person to post wins". There are now 1675 posts.

[burner]

If you're seeing this post, it is probably no longer the last post. However, it will always be the 1676th post.

How interesting.

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

The number 1678 has 3 consecutive digits. It is the last number to do so for 111 more numbers

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

The 1679 English Silver Crown is a past form of currency. One is now on sale for $750 on rubylane

[burner]

1680 does not have 3 consecutive digits. This pattern will continue for 109 more numbers.

I'm sorry
