Yeah...
...although there are others who keep military or 24 hour time, in which case it doesn't count.

I remember when it was 12:34 5/6/78.
But then, how many of you read that as June 5th, 1978?

For those who put the day first, wouldn't that be read as June 5th, 1978?

Being an ex-NASA type, I am looking forward to November 10 at 8:07. Elfie would probably opt for 11 October instead, but I learned my dates the Yank way.
