Sorting a Multidimensional Array

I have an array like this:

$events = array(
array(
'2003-07-01',
'Event Title 1',
'1' //ID Number (not unique)
),
array(
'2003-07-02',
'Event Title 3',
'22'
),
array(
'2003-07-06',
'Event Title 3',
'35'
)
);


I want to sort it by date. How would I do it?

I read the documentation for usort(), but I can't get it to work right.
Any suggestions?

Thank you so much, Jason. I didn't understand what the extra function
was for until you posted that.

It works perfectly, now. Thanks again.
