Happy New Year! And Happy New Decade! Today's date, 2010, is one of those rare dates that's the same forwards as backwards so before we take a leap into the future, let's take a look back at the past. Like many of us, this past week the Los Angeles Times Home & Garden section took a look back at what 2009 held. From what's on sale to what was in the movie theatres to a look at their compatriots (us!) to a look at their best articles, we're looking forward to looking back. And, starting tomorrow, we'll be proceeding full steam ahead into 2010.

It will not be a new decade until the beginning of next year because there was no year zero, yeah it blew my mind too.
By "decade" she means like the 80's, 90's........even though the decade (century, millennium) does start on the first year (2001, 1901, 1971, etc) when we are talking nostalgic we group the decades according to the digit in the 10's column.
I don't think today's date is the same forwards and backwards, or am I misunderstanding?
I think that date would be 01-11-10?
