Oh well, I guess it was simply a nice way to reflect the written
modern anglosaxon speech convention: December 25th, 1066 Not very usefull really when thinking logically, as a computer does: you either go BigEndian or LittleEndian, not bot or MiddleEndian :) Unfortunately, no one dared to change this before it became widespread on internet, infecting all our minds. You would have thought that the nerds would have stopped this while they still ruled! I stick to either YYYY MM DD or DD MM YYYY, I'll leave MM DD YYYY to hybrids or LSDers :) Alex [View Quote] >I think MM DD YYYY was INVENTED by America o_O > >Why? WhhhyyY? > [View Quote] |
