I like "22 March 2010" for correspondence and "20100322" for computer file names. What say you?

I use the non-heathen form of "March the 22nd in the year of Our Lord Jesus H. Christ 2010."

But what you sinners are doing is cool, too, I guess.

in most parts of the world, they put the day first (like 22-3-2010). They also drive on the left side of the road, have the steering wheel on the right side of the car and call garbage 'rubbish'.

Long-form, I would write it as: Monday, March 22nd, 2010. Short-form, I typically would express it as: 22MAR10.

You're a European, then. That's how Europeans do it--day first, month second. 3/22/10 is the American way.

Also, they call soccer "football," and call football "pointyball" or "American rugby."

I thought it was going to be about methods used to engage in social activities on an individual basis with members of the opposite sex.

Same, except I use 03/22/2010 for computers in the US, 22/03/2010 for Europe. Most European countries use day/month/year format. When you put the month first in numbers it totally screws with their heads.
