    If you instead write the day first, then no Pi-Day for you. Blame April for not having 31 days: 31/4/15 : - (

        @neiltyson you mean if we write it the correct, logical way?

        @TheProcrast @neiltyson When speaking we say March 14th 2015, so logically it would be written 3/14/15. The American way = the correct way.

        @c_t_p @neiltyson I beg to differ, correct way is to write them from smallest to highest number. Plus not all languages say it like that

        @TheProcrast @neiltyson Hence why I said the American way = the correct way. In all things.

        @c_t_p @neiltyson I did find a flaw in your reasoning though. And that would be 4th July.

        @TheProcrast @neiltyson The 4th of July is the nickname for Independence Day. Kinda like X-mas for Christmas. It is still July 4th = 7/4.

        @neiltyson Yeah, sucks being a Canadian. Health care, manageable debt, affordable universities, and decent treatment abroad almost cover it.

        @neiltyson US calendar format is illogical. π Day is American propaganda and does not exist in the Gregorian Calendar.
