I have a real issue with dating items. The biggest issue is the non-uniform formats. I got an email today that said they needed something by 08/07/2015. What does that mean? August? July? This is why I personally use the format of 08 JUL 2015.
But 2015, that is pretty arbitrary too. I could use the Islamic Calendar or the Japanese Calendar; however, I think a better way is to use something that will be relevant in 1000 years: Ivy Mike Calendar
That makes this year to be "63 IM", and the date of this post, in a usable format, 11 APR 63IM.
