Don't believe me? It's basic maths - count 100 years from year zero and tell me when year 101 starts....

IMO the 60s did not end December 31st 1970. And the "Zeros" do not end December 31st 2010.
You are making an assumption about decade. It just means ten years. Just as I can say that persons #18-#29 in a line are a dozen and that is correct. Even though the number in front are not evenly divisible by 12.
If I said happy 201st decade in the currently accepted Gregorian Calender system you would be totally right of course.
