You have better things to do than to stamp about for the rest of your
life. Also, you will never get anyone's attention when you address them as
"Hey stupid!".
No matter that I understand your desire to have sortable dates, I will
continue to write my checks with middle-endian dates, if for no other
reason than that, otherwise, my "stupid" bank will not be able to cash it.
