As someone born and raised in northern Europe I agree that YYYY-MM-DD is the only format that really makes sense. Then again, I also don't understand why everyone is not on the Metric system..
- mvzink 15y agoAs someone born and raised in the States I agree that YYYY-MM-DD is the only format that really makes sense. Furthermore, I don't understand why we are not on the Metric system...

- mvzink 15y agoThe confusing part is (here in the states), all the kids do actually learn the Metric system in their grade school science classes, starting in elementary school (primary, I think they call it elsewhere). Everyone I know knows the Metric system, but they give me queer looks when I use it, e.g. in conversation. Not like it's insulting their American-ness or something either; I really don't get it. It's worst with temperature, where people have to fight their training to estimate the temperature in Fahrenheit.
