“To maintain integrity of the language it must be noted that “the ohs” is inaccurate; 0 is number and o is a letter.”

I was simply providing a phonetic description of the audible sound. I didn’t say to write it that way. (Though indeed, among its definitions for the word “oh,” American Heritage Dictionary lists “zero.”) The sound “oh” is a pronunciation for the numeric symbol “0.” People pronounce ’05 as “oh-five”; there’s no reason we shouldn’t pronounce ’00s as “ohs.” (And many do.)

At any rate, people ARE using English when they say or write “naughts,” “aughts” or “the ’00s,” so I’m not sure what that part of your comment was all about. What’s radical, actually, is advocating the use of more complicated expressions (“the first decade of the century”) when we generally seek simplicity and brevity in language. Particularly in journalism-style writing, like that of this blog, and unlike this final paragraph of mine.
