Ok, I'm in the UK, and I have wasted many an hour fighting with a 
database over date formats, but I consider it best practice to use the 
ISO standard for dates, of year month day, rather than any 
region-specific ones. Sure, your site will most likely be fine using US 
format, but it's a good habit to get into, 'cos you never know when you 
might be working on a server that isn't using US settings.
