Briefly in Time

For the un-clever out there, and there do seem to be a lot of you, the end of 2009 does not bring with it the end of a decade. That is the job of 2010. As there was no year 0 (our calendar went from 1 BCE to 1 CE or AD however you like), we count decades from 1 to 10.

If someone asked you to start counting, would you start '0, 1, 2, 3'? I'm inclined to think you'd say '1, 2, 3, 4'.

This is not complicated. I understand that the Y2K bug may have confused you. Please get this figured out by 2019/2020.

Yours in Time,
