"tjugohundratalen" means the years 2000 . . 2099. This period is not a century,
even if it consists of 100 consecutive years. The years 1956 . . 2055 is not a
century either. The years 1 . . 100 is the 1. century. The years 2001 . . 2100
is the 21. century.

"2018 is the ninth year of the second decade etc"? No!The first decade consist
of the years 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10. The 202. decade consist of the years 2011
2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020.
So 2018 is the 8. year of the 202. decade, which is the 2. decade of the 21
century, which is the 1. century of the 3. millenium.

Sure seems Einstein was correct. According to his special theory of
relativity, time varies depending on one's speed and location. There seems
to be no agreement on time in this thread.
