Man, just don't. This argument has cropped up more than once.
Yes, technically you are right, but we don't actually measure out decades the same way we do millenia. We're more arbitrary about it - common discourse defines the decades as being 90-99, or '00-'09, and common discourse is what makes for definitions, here.
