GRRRRRRR

There was no year 0 so we started the new millennium at year 1

For a millennium to have past it must end at the end of the 1000th year ie at the end of 1000AD and at the end of 2000AD

End of story, argument finished, done and dusted....

As if...

PS How's that for rising to the bait?

Do we want to start the "The New Millennium Started In 2001, Not 2000" debate now, or wait until after Chrissy?

Happy holidays
All generalisations, even this one, have exceptions

Every child at school in 2012 will only have ever attended school  in the 21st century (prep in 2000 and so on)

Think about how we deal with that
