Tho, thru the Clock:

We support the use of the Clock Form for dates. Clock Form uses colons, ":" to count down from largest to smallest Year:Month:Day:Hour am/pm (or 24 hour):Minute 2005:July:4:11:35 or '05:7:4:11:35

Pushing the largest to smallest in Clock Form is similar to helping 1st graders see the largest to smallest form of our numbers, like,
7,654,321
so that the most important part comes first.

Many cultures, even western cultures, use different forms for date and time. Clock Form's lovely logic is a convention we are proud to help popularize, or at least make familiar.

So too, at least within the English language, we push the use of THO and THRU, for though and through.

To keep such changes to a reasonable level we limit ourselves to these 3.
