(To save me the trouble of replying to earlier postings concerning the format of dates:
I am well aware of the confusion caused by the american practice of putting the month before the date. The date of the cartoon is shown as "12-11-05" and being an American cartoon but published here in Australia (which would have the date shown as "11-12-05") I didn't know which was the proper date- so I simply left it as shown in the cartoon. As it turns out, the date is in the American format.)
This should probably be OT, but don't most people who use the dd mm yy practice use dot notation? I remember seeing that often. To use your example, the date would be written as 11.12.05, is that not correct?
No, we would normally show it as 11/12/06.
I'm curious also if we Californians (and other US peeps) are the only ones still using the mm-dd-yy format for dates.
The Canadians as well I suspect. Cheers. -- When the going gets tough, the tough get SUSE.
