I used to think that the year zero was when God created the earth, and that everything, (dinosaurs becoming extinct, kings and queens, photographs becomeing colour) had happened in the roughly 2000 years since then. I remember trying to tell my Dad, there was once a year zero, and being really surprised not only that he already knew, but that it wasn't what I thought it was.
