Guest lvdkeyes Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 Am I the only one who thinks the signs that read PATTAYA COUNTDOWN 2010 are incorrect? Isn't this 2009 counting down to 2010? Quote
Guest Astrrro Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 Even though you "might" be technically correct, I think Countdown 2010 is less confusing and better. Perhaps it should be Pattaya Countdown 2553? Better ask Dick Clark for a ruling? Quote
Guest lvdkeyes Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 If the signs said PATTAYA COUNTDOWN TO 2010 it wouldn't be confusing at all and would be accurate, but I sometimes forget where I am. Quote
Guest Oogleman Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 Its probably one of the very few dates in the calendar that Thai guys arrive on time! Quote
Guest fountainhall Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 I've always assumed the phrase meant "Countdown to . . .", in which case 2010 would be accurate. Quote
