Having said that, did you realise the momentous occasion of the date at the time, or did you miss it? ;)

I remember noticing one lunch-time during summer holiday in 1990, that it was 12:34:56s on the 7/8/90.....

They use MM/DD/YY (Not sure it's an "American System" as such though - quite a few countries use it... ;))
