The Lost Decade

When are we going to figure this out? Even radio stations have been finessing the issue for years, but here we are in 2009 and they still haven't come to a conclusion:

Coming up, your favorite soft rock hits from the '70s, '80s, '90s and .... today


Come 2010 and the advent of the "Teens," a decision is going to have to be made. What is this decade supposed to be called? "Aughts" is hopelessly antiquated, "the first decade of this century" is accurate but uselessly verbose. I, for one, can't wait to learn what the czars of culture (i.e., the editors of People and Rolling Stone magazine) will come up with.
