Yeah, sorry.. :-)  I _meant_ to write "the American MM-DD-YY order", 
because they were the only ones I knew of that commonly used it thay way.  
Only, somehow, my fingers typed it the way I'm used to.. :-)  Everywhere 
else that I've heard of it before uses either DD-MM-YY[YY] and/or 
YYYYMMDD, but I don't recall ever seeing what people in Japan commonly use.
