    Got it right, but only because I deliberately put the wrong answer.
    There are people on here who live and work outside the US with their illogical date format.

    Actually I think MM/DD/YYYY and DD/MM/YYYY are both illogical.  I prefer YYYY-MM-DD, but most people roll their eyes at me for that.

    What I hate is people who post about palindrome dates such as 8-10-18 and insist on tagging me.  I have to tell them that I always write years with four digits ever since I was involved in fixing the Y2K bug, and that I almost always write my dates as yyyy-mm-dd, so the next palindrome date will be 2020-02-02.
