Binary Numbers - Uniting the World

Today's date can be looked at in Binary form

The American way of looking at it
100110 = 32+4+2 = 38

The rest of the English speaking world
011010 = 16+8+2 = 26

Maybe that's the reason why there are always differences between the US and the rest of the world?

Ah, but come 10th of October, the whole world will think alike!
101010 = 32+8+2 = 42

42, the ultimate answer to life, the universe and everything (The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy!)
