never?

if I start having to record that I'll start having to worry, any kind of
auto accident should be a significant enough and rare enough event that the
date stands out.

Well it did stand out (I broke 4 ribs and the car was totaled by a
driver with no insurance or license who ran a red light), but when
asked, I can't remember the exact year.

Most of the time, I can date stuff after counting forwards and
backwards by the births (or in one case the death) or graduations or
marriages of my children and grandchildren and by where we lived at
the time. But the auto accident wasn't tied to any of those things.
