So, in speaking or in writing .. dd/mm/yyyy makes most sense, or at worst yyyy/mm/dd. Most changing thing should be on one side, and least changing should be on other .. why fucking put most changing term in the middle?

Or simply admit the fact that you have been a British colony and follow the standards they set. Only change the things that matter or makes difference, making such changes tells that you got a narrow and non-creative mind.
