Hi Rails Core,

I was wondering how ActiveRecord is parsing dates, as it seems 
counterintuitive to how Ruby does it.

RUBYCONSOLE:> Date.parse("2/2/2")
=> *Sat, 02 Feb 2002*

$ rails g model receipt occurred_at:date

RUBYCONSOLE:> Receipt.create!(occurred_at: "2/2/2")

=> #<Receipt id: 1, occurred_at: "*0002-02-02*", created_at: "2014-08-11 
17:06:18", updated_at: "2014-08-11 17:06:18">

RUBYCONSOLE:> Date.parse("0002-02-02")
=> Thu, 02 Feb 0002


What's up here?  I'd like my receipt to be on printer paper, not stone 
tablets.


Thanks!

Josh Bourgeois
