International Date Format


The ISO date format needs to be added as an option; in the profile section. You know: yyyy-mm-dd. I for one think is more logical. I used "dd mm, yyyy" for 15 years before moving to the US, mm/dd/yy for the next 15, and now i use yyyy-mm-dd. I really don't see the problem with adapting to something better.

"There is a difference between that which is traditional because it is correct and that which is correct because it is traditional"
- I can't remember the author.

I also prefer the ISO format. Although I suppose it all comes down to what you are accustomed to.
