I dont know about your past arguments with him and I dont really care to know, but it sounded like a legitamate discussion to me.

Anyway, read AstronomyBoy FRA if you are so inclined...

Im not an astronomy major, I am an Engineer. I was in Times Square in 2000 at the new millenium celebration, so I am going to go by that! I don't know anyone who says 1990 was part of the 80s.....because that is what your saying with 2000, you are saying it was part of the 90s!
I rest my case!

Year zero is finished at the first day of year 1.
So a full decade has finished at the start of year 11...
etc.
etc.
etc.
2010 ends december 31 2010.
simple.

Just what is your problem? It's not my fault that you make quite a lot of mistakes and I will correct them whenever I see them. I do this regardless of who is wrong and regardless of whether I like that person or not. You must be really insecure if you get so defensive when all I did was stating the facts. You know, pretending you're right while refusing to even look at what others might have to say is an attitude that will get you in big trouble sooner or later...

Also, I dont have to "try to argue" with you. LOL
You're simply wrong, end of story.

No, there is no year zero, just as there is no day zero, no hour zero etc. The first year is simply the first 365 days (day one up to and including day 365). If there was a year zero the first decade would have had 11 years (unless you say year zero started one year BC but that doesnt make sense), it's simple.

2010 ends december 31 2010.

Correct. The *first* decade ends at the end of 2010 although all the other years in it are 'zero years' (01, 02, 03 etc.). There is no decade zero just as there is no year zero. See above.

So facts don't matter if enough people agree with you? LOL. You won't be much of an engineer if you can't figure out simple math like that.

And yes, 1990 is part of the 9th decade, just as 1910 was part of the first decade. You can either talk about the 9th decade or about the 80s, they're the same thing. But the 80s are not the 8th decade. Get it now?

how is it listed there..................hmmmmmmmmm?

[dreamer]

That listing doesn't make sense because of the reasons stated above (how about actually reading the previous posts, LOL). Don't tell me you cannot grasp the math behind it.
