Aliens landed on this planet, found out about the date format MM/DD/YYYY, and left in a hurry. They are currently preparing a gamma ray burst out of pure compassion and pity but also a hint of disgust!

Is that date format used anywhere outside the US? We have always used YYYY-MM-DD. Which is very nice, if for nothing you can use a single string sort if for whatever reason need to sort them.

  In my world, there are two date formats: yyyy-mm-dd and dd.mm.yyyy. Anything involving a slash is asking for trouble.
