What is the name of this decade? Full PM-box? Change here!

So what is it?

The zero's??

The 2000's....what?

We had the sixties, the seventies, the eighties, the nineties, but it seems to me that no name lends itself easily to this decade.

The 1900's were called the oughts so wouldn't this year be ought-3 (03)?

Actually the 1900's were called the nineteen hundreds, so these would be the twenty hundreds.

What about making up a name for this deacde?

I like the dicketies (don't ask me why..)

I can just se myself in 30 years, talking to my grandson:

Back in oh-dickety-three we didn't need no stinkin' mindlink. We used mouse and keyboard, and it didn't seem odd at all, no siree
