What Decade Is It?

In History we refer to the seventeen hundreds and the eighteen hundreds (1700s 1800s). I considered it a new millenium when we hit 2000. So, i consider that we are now in a new decade. Bloody hope so; else we'll have all those tv retrospectives to do all over again in 12 months time!

But doesn't the 17th century start with 1601?
