B.C.E. — Uggg, I like to tell the people that put this in that I now call this “Before Christian Era” instead of the B.C. and A.D. they have gone to this Politically Correct Crap. (If you didn’t know that they now say “Before Common Era” which is still the BIRTH OF CHRIST.
Like the Lion pic, excellent article BTW.
