Were you one of the ones who ran around at the millenium telling everyone '....of course, we
actually should be celebrating this
next year...'
Anyway, happy new year to all, I hope we all get what we desire most in 2010....
Happy New Year everyone. I hope whatever year next year is, it's a good one for you all. Except for Evil Genius, as we'll see positive moves made for a United Ireland being in place for 2016 ;)
Another year of shite threads to look forward to.

if the first year of existance was the year 1, the end of the decade was the end of year 10, therefore the next decade starts in year 11..... and so on and so on, quite simple really. Someone tried to explain this to me at the millenium but i didn't understand......was 28, single and full most of the time. Now i,m marrried, a dad and more sensible (well, 2 of those anyway), i have caught on
So Leenie, where did you end up?

But sure the first year of existence "Year 1" is 0-1 (time starts at 00h00m00s) "Year 2" is 1-2 and so on..... until "Year 10" which is 9-10. So a new decade begins at the start of Year 10, quite simple really!!!

surely a decade is 10 FULL years, therefore after the first year is over it is the end of year 1. So after 10 years is over it is the end of 10 FULL years.
so as it stands we have completed 2009 years. Divided by 10 it is 200.9. Not an even number. wont be fit to round it up to 201 until the end of this year. it isnt quite simple, its very simple !!

so 2000 was a year in the nineties???,and 1990 was a year in the eighties??sounds a bit strange to me.
it is strange alright, thats where the whole arguement was at the time of the millenium
ye,thats why id say this year is the start of a new decade.also,when a baby's born it not a 1yo it's 0,why was there no 0 A.D?

I cant argue with your maths lecture! ::) but my point goes back to the start of time. Yes a decade is 10 FULL YEARS. Time started at 0. So at the end of Year 9, 10 FULL YEARS have been completed (0-1,1-2... 9-10). So a new decade begins at the start of Year 10. Yes your right it isn`t quite simple, its very simple.!!
