Post Script; I am suggesting you keep dates in the TiddlyWiki Serial number format and use the View widget to display in other ways as desired. By selecting the date range using the days operator in the list widget, you keep the logic in the list process and avoid converting dates unnecessarily and thus the challenge of maintaining valid date formats.
