That was in lieu of this, dates are messy
Basically I would suggest that naming every file with a leading date has problems. try

It will think 2008-19-19 is a date - which it is not. Most correct date regexes are several hundred character long. The only gold standard is to refer to the output of cal.
We use part of this date check algorithm below (simplified greatly) for validating old dates. This is more nearly complete && correct than most straight shell implementations using regex are likely to be. I deliberately excluded
