I like that system. Never knew that it was a official system in
certain countries. It's what I use on PC's though. I'm dutch and we
use dd/mm/yy, which works a little bit. At least it is a sequence. Now
that I live in the States, I'm starting to get used to their system.
It's not easy, but I'll get there.
Another 'strangeness' that always gets me is the way they write
addresses down here. I live at 3510 Sahalee Drive. In Holland we would
say: Sahalee Drive 3510. For me, that makes more sense, you first find
the street, and then you look for the number.
