I didn't say anything about time format. You just assumed. Is "OT" Off-Topic, or On-Topic. Could be either! You just assumed. I'm not out to get the whole world to change to ISO-anything. I'm out to get the entire world to change to the way I do things ;-) You are right about the sorting order, though. But any app I use for sorting dates (Excel) can sort MM/DD/YY correctly anyway.
