Why would anyone think that? Really.
|
|
|
|
I see the 4-digit number there first, and realize that it is obviously the year.
|
|
Hmm, this must be some format I've never seen before. That's odd, it starts with
|
|
the big number, the one representing the longest period of time. I guess the second
|
|
number would be for the second longest period of time, the month. Then the day of
|
|
the month (the shortest period of time) must come last. So it's long-medium-short.
|
|
Nobody would put long-short-medium -- if they were going to do something stupid like
|
|
that, they would have written it in the US standard medium-short-long.
