Subject: RE: BS: What will they call this decade?
And note in Doug's reference to 1900-1910, tho' you don't call it a decade, Doug, some might. However, if you count each year of 1900-1910, lo and behold, you get eleven.

You only get eleven if you go from 1st January 1900 to 31st December 1910. If you pick a time and date in 1900 and go to the same time and date in 1910,

e.g. 4.30 a.m. EST, 18th February 1900 to 4.30 a.m. EST, 18th February 1910

then it's a decade.
