TV stations should stop broadcasting Miss USA pageants outside this country. That way the pea-brained idiots who think Australia is in Europe or that The I-Rack is a vacation destination won't be used to stereotype the average American. :-D

I just realized, I've been working for 6 years now. Started on 01-09-2004*. Switched jobs only once - and what timing that was! 3 months after I left, they sold themselves to Big Bad Financial Institution That Shall Remain Nameless, which fired more than half the employees. Working has been many things to me, but it's been very challenging, and I like it a thousand times better than college. How long have you been working? * Note to Americans: over here, we write dates correctly. ;P
Added smiley - there's something wrong when a tongue-in-cheek comment garners the most responses. And yes, yyyy-MM-dd is way better than any of the other two formats.

Ability to define proper date format[^] Just kidding of course.

Everybody thinks that they are right and other are wrong, but what they are forgetting is that it is difference that makes this world a wonderful place to live.

yyyyMMdd?
Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?
Author of the Guardians Saga (Sci-Fi/Fantasy novels)Absolutely, beats the pants off the other two formats. But of dd-MM-yyyy and MM-dd-yyyy, the former is better any day.

The talking part isn't the problem. It's when nothing by blather and drivel come out of it...

I prefer to work in AP (After Pete). Thus, all dates are referred to as numbers of seconds since people become aware of me; I like to keep them on their toes constantly calculating. It's not a perfect system, but it's mine - and as everybody else is but a figment of my imagination it's not my problem.

Not when 99% of users habitually give dates in the latter format without thinking. :rolleyes:

Only in the states! Europe, most of Asia, China and I think India all use the more sensible format. Your view is quite parochial. The only reason mm/dd/yyyy gets a look in outside the US is that it is the windows default format!
