Mmm....pi(e)

I made maple syrup pie, brought some to the office. Still have to finish the thing but it's not exactly a chore.

Why not use the ISO standard yyyy/mm/dd? Since it goes from largest to smallest unit, it's easily extendable to add the time if you need more precision.

In casual date schema, most folks use the mm/dd or dd/mm format.

Myself, in conversation I'll use mm/dd (e.g. March 14th), when writing out the date, I'll use dd/mm (14 March), if I'm putting dates in a filename, I'll use ISO standard. (filelog 20160314)

I've gotten into the practice of occasionally using the DD-MON-YYYY format. So today would be 17-MAR-2016.
