they all look the same upside down or in a mirror.
here is a slightly more dificult problem:
assuming we retain the present calendar, what will be the next time we see a year that reads the same if inverted (i'm talking as written, not as shown in a seven-element digital display)?

3003?
"inverted" as in "rotating 180 degrees in the plane of the writing surface" if you do that with 3003, you get something like "E00E".
the method you suggest rotates around a horizontal axis through the middle of each digit, but you have to leave the plane of the writing surface.
sorry for the confusion!
