@MartinTheFirst It's the census bureau's count every ten years. While the US census bureau is active all the time, they do a large scale census every ten years. While "decadal" is not the official, government-given name bestowed upon it, it IS an accurate description. Perhaps you should get off your high horse of condescension and not demean others. Does it give you some sort of satisfaction to belittle others from your keyboard?
@ThroughMyEyes I'm stating the facts. You sound like someone who tries to find a person he can hate on, since I've already explained that I didn't mean it the way you took it, yet you insist on arguing about it. Perhaps you should learn to be a little bit more forgiving... or not put your nose in other people's business... or what I really think is the issue here... Stop wasting my time.
