How will you say 2012?

Happy New Years! It's 2012!

Like the old saying goes, "You say tomayto, I say tomahto." Some will call it Two-Thousand-Twelve, some will call it Twenty-Twelve.

Personally, from the years 2000-2011, I referred to the years by their long names.  Two Thousand, Two Thousand-one, etc.  But, a very wise friend, who also happens to be my brother-in-law, pointed out to me that historically this is not how we have referred to the years.  1900 is not referred to as One Thousand-Nine Hundred, but rather Nineteen-Hundred.  It makes sense to me!

So, in 2012, I'm gonna try changing it up, and see if it sticks.  I will refer to the year as Twenty-Twelve, instead of Two-thousand-twelve. 

How will you refer to the new year?
