Right now, there is a big debate as to what we are going to call this year. Should it be 20 10 or 2010? The 20 10 folks point out that their version uses one less syllable than 2010. Plus, they claim that it follows with tradition. The 2010 folks point out that it sounds warmer and less mechanical.

Why not take it one step further and just call the year “10”. After all, “10” has that ring of perfection to it. Plus it is one less syllable shorter that 20 10.

I hope debates like these are not indicative of the decade to come.
