[E-Type] The new milllennium for those who care. - no jag content

I saw a post a couple of days ago apparently debating when the next
millennium starts.

Although many want to think that it is January 1st 2000, this not the case.
There was no year 0.

The 21st century will start on Jan. 1st 2001. This is from the World Almanac
in a sections relating to the Julian and Gregorian calendar. I am not
against celebrating the start of the last year of the millennium, but the
fact remains that next, not this coming New Years will be the start of the
next millennium.

If you don’t like this, look at it this way, you have a good excuse to party
again next year.
