As for comparing their 111H to other dealers - no clue.

I guess that meant they will come back on the 8th of May, not 5th of Aug.

Right. I can see how some would get confused being that some countries outside USA use the dd/mm/yy format.

Some? True, but if you think of it like this, it's even weirder: The US and Canada are the only countries to use mm/dd/yy. It simply makes no sense as a date system.

The Japanese format is by far the most logical, though: yyyy-mm-dd

I think either dd/mm/yy OR yy/mm/dd is logical, as time is a continuum. Since moving to N America I have become accustomed to the illogicality of the date system - but at my core it still drived me phuckin' crazy!

The legacy of mm first likely dates to origins in finance (bonds are issues mthly) and newspapers (used to be stored by month). In the modern era these conveniences are an irrelvance (computers will store data any date fashion programmed).

And don't get me started on Imperial/U.S. measurement vs metric ....!!
