hwclock allows to use a logical format!
e.g. here is a quote from hwclock manpage:
--date=date_string
You need this option if you specify the --set or --predict functions, otherwise
it is ignored. It specifies the time to which to set the Hardware Clock, or the
time for which to predict the Hardware Clock reading. The value of this option
is an argument to the date(1) program. For example:
hwclock --set --date="2011-08-14 16:45:05"
The problem is that date(1) program allows to use TOO MANY formats (both logical and illogical).
We have to select only one format!
