10th of the 25th month???

This is the only forum I used that has the date set the wrong way, is it possible to have the option to set it properly for those of us that like it that way???

Today's date is 25-10-09

Thx Swanny

Oh and why do you guys drive on the wrong (left) side of the road?,
when we drive on the correct (right) side?

P.S. Did I spell everything OK?

If i was driving in the UK or the other left sided countries, even weirder than the side of the road i'm on would be the side of the car i'd be sitting in!

(especially with a manual transmission. And are the pedals reversed as well?

)

Then, some of us are composites, like me {sketchy} - close to the US border in ass thumping territory and in the UK Dominion of Canada - like Oz and Kiwi and old India Commonwealth - with mongrel kids, Euro upbringing, formed by the land .... I always mix up the date thing - we Canadians run them both.

It's mixed up.
