Until the arabs or indians gave the west a zero it couldn't
be counted anyway :-) So it is a millenium based on old
maths.
But what i wonder is why these guys worry about millenium being out
by one when a kilobyte is out by 24! <hehe>
Anyway we're all out by 4 or 5 years since Christ was born 4
BC by most recent determinations. Moslems will have a few
hundred years to go and the Chinese are several milleniums
ahead. Not to mention the month that was missed entirely in
Europe because they'd left out leap years and the seasons were
getting out of sinc with the months (or vice a versa)
we'll just have to have lots of parties.:-)
