that much on ink?
why dont they simply state the year in full...so i dont have to go through the fraction of a second that it takes to convert it in my mind to the full and proper number.
i dont want 07 on my yellow pages or gas bill or credit card statement...i want to see 2 0 0 7 ...!

no 3...you say it isnt important..but it is symtomatic of laziness in cutting corners. my point though is that on occasions it is confusing rather than clarifying.

It only matters if there's likely to be confusion whether the date refers to 2007 or 1907.
That isn't the case with your yellow pages, gas bill or credit card bill

Hmmm...just thought about your question as to think does it bother me...and no I don't see an issue whether it is 2007 or 07 really xx

It doesn't annoy me, but I accept your point.
How it affects me is the reverse situation when they give us a tiny space on forms to put the date. I always put the full date in that space, including the full name of the month, it is their problem if it is too small for them to read.

A piece of minutia that I never gave much though to. Doesn't even register on a scale that includes tsunamis and world hunger.

You should ask 007 how he manages because they have elongated his number but shortened his name to Bond... James Bond
