    Not mine, but my trainee’s. He had planned a big party with friends for his 18th birthday on the day. It was the 9th of November September 11th, 2001.

    @Mayor Poppington Thanks for seeing this. Why are American dates in the wrong order?

        I’m guessing it was impacted by the September 11th attacks.

        Edit: thinking about it more, it could just be a European troll that forgot our dates are swapped around over here. They thought 9/11 was the 9th of November.

          Why does the troll have to be european? Most of the world uses DD/MM/YYYY, or some variation of that order.
