            The date of the 21 st Century


   Reader, hello!


   The following sets out an explanation (or proof - as you 
want), why the early 21 st century should be considered as 
January 1, 2001 (two thousand one) year. 


   Who is this text: people who are somehow wrongly believe 
that the twenty-first century (as well as the third millennium) 
begins 01.01.2000. 


   When I had enough to carry out this explanation in a 
personal manner, I made it in a separate document. IMHO any 
mentally Healthy people have carefully read the following type 
can Yet finally sort out the issue. Islyucheniem are people 
with extremely painful self-esteem, which simply will not delve 
into the meaning of written material. 

1. On the calendar dates and ages.

   Date is a means of specifying days, months and years since
some generally agreed to date.


   Well, there's no questions there, I hope:)


   Written to date in our country as a
 . .
 <Year>


   For example, 01/14/1905 - is the 14th January, one thousand 
nine hundred and fifth year. 


   Pay attention to the decline of numbers. Not "one thousand 
nine hundred five years, "namely" one thousand nine hundred and 
fifth year. "This date is not indicates that the origin was 
1905 years. None. This date LITERALLY said that since the 
beginning of the reference passed in 1904, and is now attending 
(but not yet completed) 1905 st - the current year, January of 
this is 1905 - January, just not over yet and that now runs the 
14th day of this same January. And gone with the origin in 
1904, and 13 full days (the 14th day has not passed). 

   I beg you, sir, (ladies?) One more time to carefully read 
the paragraph above. 

   You wonder why? Look further, everything will be clear.

   Consider the very moment of a hypothetical birth from which 
accepted ischilyat days and years of the New Era. 

   To make life more comfortable you can imagine drawing the 
line. The line starts the number 0 - that is the origin, but 
once same for the 0 mark begins the very first centimeter ruler 
and lasts up to a mark 1, for which will begin the second 
centimeter. 

   And with dates. The first day the morning after the birth of 
Christ was the first day of the first month of the first year 
of a new era. And despite the fact that "age" of Christ was 
essentially zero, began the same _pervyy_ day. _Pervogo_ Month. 
_Pervogo_ Year. In the standard format is written as 01.01.0001.


   Today, we now have 26/11/1999, 26 November 1999, the year 
that said that since the benchmark was 1998 years, 10 months

and 25 days. A one thousand nine hundred ninety-nine years will 
pass from the time frame when the current end of 1999 the first 
year, then there at the end of 12/31/1999 - that is, at the 
onset (or onset) of 2000. 

   I hope that all of the above clear? Well, with dates
understood.

2. Century and millennium.


   When you begin a new century? Generally a new century? The 
new century begins, when my old age. If we speak exact - when 
will the last day of the last month the last year of old age. 

   Of course, the third millennium will begin when polnstyu 
will be two thousand years from the date of reference, that is, 
when will the two thousandth year of the birth of Christ, that 
is the last day of the 2000-th year. And the last day of 2000 
will be on December 31, that is in fact the beginning of 2001.


   So the new 21st century and the new third millennium will 
begin on the night of January 1 of 2001. 

Actually, as required.

   Chitael, if you want me to argue it is better to try to 
argue at least one argument in the chain of evidence, and I 
already said everything. Dixi.
