depends on view point ... technically you may be right, but try to 
tell that to the millions that will be celebrating it at 
2000:00:00:00 .... 

lets see ... scsi drive 0:1:2, ide drive 0:1 .... the computer 
millenium effect - at midnight 99 it shifts to 00 and time goes 
back a century (ok bad example) ... when counting, something is 
always one more than previous, one less than next, so one is one more 
than zero, and zero is one more than -one ... all my xyz coordinate 
systems converge at zero .... hmmm, logically counting begins at zero 
(and we won't even get into the zen of the matter) 

... is that fenris i hear rattling his chain in the distance? or is
it a great serpent that is preparing to return to midgaard?  maybe a
ragnorak theme would be in order ???
