    Nah, it's jest that them Yurripeans don't know how to right dates. They rights them as day month year instead of the proper was of month day year. Jest one more thing that proves them Yurripeans is gay.

    Seriously, the people that lost the big war write their dates strangely.

    Overseas there folks they put the day before the month on their dates so no conspiracy here. In fact many of these other countries scratch their head why we do our way with the month first and if you go overseas and do business you better be aware how they do the dates so you turn up on the right day for your meeting or whatever it might be.

    0.8.08.2015 i believe is the same the same as 5/8/2015. In European countries it is popular to put date prior to month "cinco de mayo"...actually the US and Belize are the only countries where they place month/date/year (middle endian). Over 3 billion worlwide use the little endian (Day/Month/Year)

    This is why many international companies and medical facilities would have their people write today's date as: 12 Jun 2015. No way to confuse month and day.The three-letter Jun is not a typo, August would be Aug.

    This is the same reason My Spanish Aunt would send my Sister a birthday card on March the first (03/01) when her actual birthday is January the third (01/03). It always made my Sister laugh.
