Only if the calendar started with a 1. If on the other hand Year 1 represented
the first year to pass (like a baby's first birthday), 2000 is indeed the
beginning of the second millenium. The debate is in fact all based on this. I
for one believe that Year 1 was the first year to pass, therefore the year 2000
is the beginning of the third millenium after Christ.
