This discussion was briefly quoted in a thread in the typo3.english 
newsgroup [1] and Xavier "DBAL" Perseguers noted that any decent DBMS 
supports a DATE/DATETIME datatype.

Advantage is also that it can be used directly in queries to compare 
other dates, convert it to certain formats, etc.

I think Xavier's knowledge can be very useful when it comes to making 
decisions about how to store data in a cross DBMS supported way.
