3,653 days in this decade

When your talking TEN years who cares if you are off by a few days or years?

It is just like Taxes. When you have a credit union account worth at least $250,000 and maybe as much as $500,000 -- and didn't report it, The IRS understands.

While it is true that there was no year 0, it is also true that there was no year 1.

^^Think about that one

So did the first decade have 9 years in it?

Most historians agree that Dionysius nominated Christ's birth as December 25 of the year before AD 1[1]. This corresponded with the belief that the birth year itself was considered too holy to mention[citation needed]. It also corresponds to the notion that AD 1 was "the first year of his life," as distinguished from being the year after his first birthday. Similarly in AD 1000 the church actively discouraged any mention of that year and in modern times it labelled AD 2000 as the "Jubilee Year 2000" marking the 2000th anniversary of the birth of Christ. The AD system counts years with origin 1. Some assume a preceding Year 0 for the start of the first Christian millennium in order to start the millennia in year numbers multiple of 1000. This results in such first millennium containing only 999 Gregorian years.
