 Officially? 2001. Because Jesus wasn't born in the year 0 (actually it was 4 B.C. but, who's counting?). According to the rest of the world, it "officially" started in 2000. So, it really doesn't matter when it started. :O)

Have a great day!

Okay, is this one of those 'New Math' problems like "When EXACTLY did this new millenium start?"
BTW, what IS the answer, 2000 or 2001?!? %)
