Date used in [[xkcd]] 426 which kicked off geohashing as a public sport. This date was the 109th anniversary of the [[1896-05-26 52 9|first Dow index]], perhaps a market opening. Why 2005, since the comic was published in 2008? Nobody seems to know except [[user:xkcd]]/[[user:Randall]] and maybe some privileged others, but they are keeping their secrets.
