Sales by Month comparisons
But I agree, for normal use ISO, because it sorts correctly as text or date

AA/BB/CC is the worst, especially for dates in the range 2001 - 2012.

It's more logical then 3. 3. Is really a bad idea.

When you say a date out loud, do you say 1st August or do you say August 1st?

No it's not.
When conveying information, it would be considered normal to pass on that information in a structured and logical format- normally written in order from most specific to general. Think of street addresses. Most specific is the street number, to least specific being the country. Same with dates. Most specific, which is the day, to least specific which is the year.
The silly American way mixes that up.
