ISO's (International Standards Organization) standard is YYYY/MM/DD. Today
is therefore 2012/10/01. You will therefore see this reporting much more
often.

Actually, for my records, I always use the year-month-day, but that hasn't

Date notation confuses me, as going through patients' old lab and X-ray
results I see both numeric systems used. For years I have written simply
(and for example), "Oct. 1/12", or the mil version: "1Oct12". Nice to know
someone is equally vexed.
