So after this decade is over...what is it supposed to be called? The two-thousands? The O's? The zero's?

When I've heard the decade called by name, I've almost always heard two-thousands. Zeros is also used by a few people, but I don't think that'll stick. I think the next decade will be called the twenty-teens, everytime I hear 2010 said on the news, it's usually said as "twenty-ten". So when people hear two-thousands they will automatically think of the first decade of the 21st century.

I just wonder once we hit 2030 whether we will refer to the 2020's as two-thousand twenties or just as 'the twenties' like we did last century. I think we will, because that time the collective memory of the '20s' as the 1920s will be very weak, there will be just a few thousand people who remember the 1920s left.

According to the Mayan calender the world is going to end on December 23, 2012 anyway, so its all irrelevent. ;):P

Just as my old pal Coty said: The world will end today! Who cares about 2020?. I think he is right.
