Especially those cultures--see thread on myth of Celts--which may only exist as figments of our own imaginations. :wink:

Nope, the 2nd decade of the 21st Century starts in 2011. 8) But you're the first to wish that, I'd reckon, being a whole year ahead of schedule.

I beg to differ...this beingth beginning of the 1st year of the next decade, it has already started...2 days old already.

Here's how it was explained to me back in Y2K. There was no year Zero. The calendar would have changed (IF they'd been using our system, which of course they weren't) on December 31, 1BC to January 1, 1AD. So the first year of the first decade of the first century of the first millennium was 1. The second year was 2, the third was 3...the tenth was 10. Then the second decade started with 11AD. And so on. The x0 year is the last of the ten being counted.
It made sense back then to me, and I guess it just stuck.

*click* (sound of my brain activating) :oops:
Yep. We're right, aren't we? What's that period of time called when the brain comes on and realizes the year has changed? You're right, Byron, and I'm right too. How did that happen? :lol: :?:
Yes, may this decade be better than the last, and as I'm prone to say, "May the best of our past be the worst of our future". May we all survive until the end of this decade, too. :wink:
