Hm, I'm not sure about that; while it's fairly established that millenniums are 1-indexed (as there was no "Year 0" ... silly Gregorian calendar), it seems that decades are 0-indexed (e.g., "the 80s"). Unfortunately neither of my go-to usage guides (_Garner's Modern American Usage_ and _The Chicago Manual of Style_) says much on the topic. :p _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
