[QUOTE]Originally posted by PsyLiam: [QB] OKAY! Right, anyone here (mainly the Brits, cause the Americans wouldn't know a party if it came up and pooped in their trousers) going to stand around in December this year, when everyone is having a good time, and start shouting 'No, the millenium starts this year, because there wasn't a year 0, the first century would have then been 1-100, the second...hey, you've spilled beer on my cardigan!'? Nope? There's a difference in saying that it starts in 2000 because you're a moron, and just going with the flow because you don't want to be a pedantic arse that doesn't get invitied to parties because you'll spend you're whole time telling everyone that they're getting the rules of 'fuzzy duck' wrong. Tahna said it best. 1999-2000 changes [i]4[/i] digits. 2000-2001 changes 1. Since the actual millenium has no relevence to anything ANYWAY, that's use the excuse that all those cheques that have 19__ written on them will be useless in 9 months. Oh, and why would we have to move New Year's if we recalculated the millenium cause of Jesus. I can understand moving Christman, but New Year's? [/QB][/QUOTE]
