You've got your numbers mixed up; it should be 1960 to 1969, for example, not 1961-1970. It's like when a clock starts, it doesn't start at 'one' but rather 'zero.'

 

The thread asks you to start at 1891 to 1900...

And to be fair as there was never a year zero, it does make sense.

I change it from 1980 because I already had them lists.

 

I wasn't directing it at you, but anyone who followed the initial incorrect method.

'Year zeros' occur regularly throughout history. 1980, 1990, 2000 etc... As I said, a clock starts at zero, not one (imagine a second - you don't count 'one, two, three', you count '[gap] one, two, three). Just as a decade starts at zero and finishes just before the next zero. By starting the '40s at 1941, you've missed out on the first year of that decade.

 

The reason I say this is there was never a year '0' in our Gergorian calender so actually crosstrainer is right a decade is year 1 to year 10 and so on for our calender...

 

Year one isn't called year one. The first year is from zero to the end of the 365th day.

Why do you think they call the 1800s the nineteenth century, and the 1900s the twentieth century? Because the first century started from zero; the second century started from one, and so on.

 

Year one was called year one, there never was a year zero. And people stayed true to this up to the early 20th century, people celebrated the new century on December 31st 1900 not December 31st 1899.

But because we live in a time were people lack knowledge of Gergorian calender (thankfully mainly because people are not so religious) that little fact has been over looked between 1901 and 2000.

 

There was a reason, I knew it would get you stirred up

Actually unlike Greb who was sadly no longer with us after 1926, Walker fought the entire decade and accomplished more in the 20s than Greb did

 

Sorry, you're wrong.

Whatever you want to call year one or year zero or whatever, the fact remains: time starts at zero, not one. And regarding decades, that means the next decade starts at zero again once the last one reaches the end of the 365th day of its last year. Decades are as so:

1940-49
1950-59
1960-69

... And so on. They do not start at at '41, '51 or '61.

 

I think you proved the point my secular friend

 

I've proved my own point, yes. Thank you.

 

But the first marked year is year 1. The 20th century runs from 1901 to 2000, the 19th from 1801 to 1900. Cross Trainer, as he would be the first to point out, is a man of supreme erudition, and would never make an error on something like this.
