Yes, the total still seems to be 13.  Amazing!

However, don't Brits write dates backwards, ie. 13-10-2006?

The world should really standardize of the 2006-10-13 format so that dates
are like times with the units going from big to small.  If one also uses
leading zero (eg., 2006-01-02), then date strings are alphabetically
sortable.

Whichever way round the date is written - 13-10-2006 or 2006-10-13 - the
total comes out to 13

What if I write it as 10-13-2006, does it still add up to 13?
