Somewhat math slide, taking out my frustrations?

Sent this out circa 1130:
Well, I finally had it with the tards who think we are starting a new decade. Look, zero is a point, a transition. It has NO value. There was never a collection of 365 days that, when ended, was called “Year Zero”.

Correspondingly, 10 has value and rightly ends where “eleven” starts. The decade of the “twenties” begins at the transition point midnight 31DEC2020/01JAN2021, approximately 365 days from today (leap year...).

That is all. My Christian history professor thanks you.

>>There was never a collection of 365 days that, when ended, was called “Year Zero”

What a marvelous realization!

That means that we have a Year Zero on reserve that we can use whenever we need it. For example, perhaps we should have substituted 2008 with Year Zero, and saved 2008 for some better time.

Then why do it start with a 20?

20 not 19 regards

Oh, brother! I am so confused; just what year is this anyway? 😮 Y20K?
