Century - Humor



I'm teaching a community education class in the evenings
on the History of Northwest Florida and Pensacola.   Monday
night I was referring to a major event that happened here in
1906 ... and I started to say "early in this century" and had to
change it to "early in the last century!"   So much for Y2K
compliancy!   But, of course, don't centuries run 1-100s....
so 2000 is still the 19th century?
