Discussion about this date:
This is wrong not only because of the Y2K bug, knowing when I was using a video camera, it said 01/01/1830. Man. Not only that, the millennium didn't actually begin in 2000, we did that as a warm up cause the 3rd millennium actually began in 2001. Nothing (millennium, century, decade) starts without the number 1, zero don't count.
