a decade is a period of 10 years.

2000 to 2009 is 9 years...what dont you understand?

Read what people have posted, and take it in. You're coming across as an idiot. You can't dispute when a decade begins and ends, the 2000's ends on 31st December 2009. And 2010's starts on January 1st 2010. Simple stuff really.

Holy crap are you a moron.

[sycomantz]

The 2000s is the decade that started on January 1, 2000 and will end on December 31, 2009. It is the current decade.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2000-2009

one more time. 2000 to 01 is 1 year, 01 to 02 is 2 years, 02 to 03 is 3 years and so on.

if by your math 2000 to 2009 is one decade, well that makes 9 years not 10. count. its not rocket science

count from 1990 to 2009 and see that you dont get 19 years instead of 20.

by your way of counting, you are taking a year from the previous decade.
