web: still no date love

I complained about the complete and utter randomness of date formats. Going through receipts from travel:
060708
6.07.2008
06-07-08
06/07/2008
Jul'06 08
Jul06/2008
06JUL 2008
07/06/08
07-06-08
And Yankee imperialist scum, none are June, those are all July 6th 2008.

How much time do people waste comprehending the 20 different ways of representing a date? What does it take to get companies to stop this nonsense and use ISO8601 dates?

2008-07-06 Done. All ambiguity gone for anyone on earth.
