The European standard is sane if in the reverse order for decent
computer sorting. The US standard is not called reasonable by anyone but
americans. So you should use iso 8601 dates which are sane *and* in the
order computers expect: YYYY-MM-DD

And no I haven't looked how to feed it to openoffice by default either
(cursing there too)
