Better than the stupid dd/mm/yyyy. WhoTF talks out the date as "21st February, 2007" ??

All of Europe. Don't know about Afrika, South-Amerika, Asia, Canada or whatever the English name for the continent with Australia.
In South America we use the more sensible approach, just like the Europeans: dd/mm/yy or dd-mm-yy or with yyyy. It just makes sense. Besides, I know you Americans (from the US) think you have the best method for everything, but you have to realise that nobody besides you says the date like this: "February nineteen, 1997". Everyone else says "the 19th of February, 1997". Just like nobody else uses the Fahrenheit scale, or just like nobody else uses quarts.
It just baffles me that you could possibly argue that mm/dd/yyyy is more sensible - there's no chronological order there. Big to small or small to big - makes sense, doesn't it?
