Hans,

?

Please don¡¯t use either format.

?

The format YYYY-MM-DD is much clearer.

?

Any other format is pure rubbish.

FYI

The packages don't always move on the 11th of the month... American date format is month/day/year. Rest of world day/month/year. It's why I try to remember to write the month as the first three letters of its name, rather than a number.

 Apparently packages only move on the 11th of the month ?

DOH! Just hit my brain, European date format!

My packages (USA, Monroe Twp, NJ) will travel from the point of origin, to
Newark Airport (a large airport) then to a local distribution point near
me then Monroe Twp PA (~120 miles way) and then to another Monroe Twp, NJ
then finally to my home.

Yes it is unfortunate that NJ had many too engineers when naming our towns
Multiple Washington's, Monroe's, Franklin's and Cranbury's. Seems the Dutch
were pretty bad at it too. ;-)

Perhaps I should include my FN code in my address? ;-)
