Hello John Berry, Yes, I am forced to write date as you say. Logic? No way. Then you ought to start with seconds when you give the time. Correct is of course YYYY/MM/DD just like the time HH/MM/SS. Another thing to pick up from Europe is the usage of 24 hour clock and to use the week number for delivery time etc. I am glad you guys in this forum does not use lbs, feet and stuff like that.Pint I do agree with:)
