Mike [fourtecks]:
if you think about it the most logical way to do it would be year/month/day for sorting reasons. starting with day is just bloody stupid imo because of that. but hey. no worries I suppose ;)

Mark [lodle]:
mike most logical way would be day/month/year as year doesnt change (except every new year), month doesnt change that often so day is the most important factor.

Konrad Beerbaum:
Wait doesn't the US use the most logical way then? Oh wait, it does.  Booyah!

Mark [lodle]:
Nope, usa is mm/dd/yyyy
Rest is dd/mm/yyyy

I'm talking about numerical ordering like file 'sort by name' in operating systems and stuff
