0It should be pronouned "twenty oh seven" ie. war of 1812 ("eighteen twelve")02br
02br
00however, you guys messed up the system, so it is pronouced "two thousand seven", no "and". ie. July fourth, two thousand seven02br
02br
00but some people may add the year when they are referring to an event that is happening in that year02br

10Agreed, very few people say "twenty oh seven" but I certainly hope we don't go through an entire century saying "two thousand whatever"02

0There's a fellow on CBS Sunday Morning who does say "twenty oh eight." Routinely at work, we refer to 2010 as twenty ten. I just thik we have to get through these "aughts" and then it will be back to "twenty..."0-
