I would have never thought of that. My baby will be here on Monday the 6th, maybe I should try to have him out early! What a birthday that would be!

But what happens on 01-02-03 at 04:05:06?

Oh yeah, and that would have to be Mountain time, -07 hours.

Not Europe - the whole freakin' world except some Americans who can't understand the logic in placing a date in order from smallest unit to largest unit, i.e. date, month, year.

01/02/03 will not be until the beginning of next month.

Of course, I avoid the confusion by always abbreviating the month whenever possible.

what's so hard about putting them in the order they'd be said (like most of us), 01/02/03 is right... January 2nd of 2003.

It just seems more awkward to try and say the 2nd of january of 2003, 02/01/03.

That's my guess as to why most people use the first method... who knows if I'm right or not.
