Umm... there is no year 0 A.D. ;]
Reason the year 2001 is actually 2000 years since year 1. And no, second
1 of minute 1 of hour 1 of day 1 of year 1 does not have a whole zero
year hiding in there somewhere. Goes immediately to year 1 B.C.
according to Greg. Let's blame him if anyone.
You do realize that zeroes weren't even in use in the ancient
civilization, right? Invented by mathematicians I believe. Okay, let's
blame them instead.
Oh, and Happy New Year 2000! just in case I miss it later.
