Those “pedant” are wrong. The correct answer is that our current kludged calendar only numbers 9 years in the first “decade” CE. Just like the “year” 1752 in England had only 355 days. Labels are arbitrary. Get used to it.

Surely you can’t know what anyone else “likes to feel.” That’s the kind of thing non-skeptics tend to trade in.

I can certainly infer what they like to feel by their behavior, though. I might be wrong about it, but I don’t think so in this case.

Calenders are a social construct. If we agree its the last day of the decade then it really is.

I don’t feel superior to anybody but I will die on this hill...the decade ends next Dec. 31!
Btw, I enjoy following you. Keep up the good work.

You can die on any hill you like. I can bitch about people dying on a hill that I consider to be a pointless hill to die on.
