The new year hasn't come yet and already discussions on how to pronounce "2010" are enough to make you dizzy. Here's one. Enjoy. (And at least this time I'm glad I'm Italian.)
David Crystal discusses the name of the new decade in On tens, teens, or whatever; there’s also an intriguing comment on a possible reason why English speakers don’t say “twenty-oh-nine” – the film Two Thousand and One: A Space Odyssey!

Segnalazione molto interessante, grazie! (Si profila un bel minestrone di date, eheheh!)
Have a wonderful 2010 :-)
