BCE = Before Common Era. CE = Common Era. It is a method of dating designed to not offend those who reject Christ. It’s one of the first woke usurpations.

I am well aware of that. Why do you think I read it the way I do?

No confusion there. Hanta virus is spread by rat feces or the dust thereof.

The most dangerous job in the Middle Ages was child birth, and the most endangered age group was 0-12 years old.

For persons who survived to at least age 18, the average age of death for women was around 43 years, and the average age of death for men was around 48.

The aristocracy lived longer, but even most Kings and Princes died before age 60.

Less than 10% of the adult population lived past age 70.

Average European and North American life span did not begin to increase until the first decade of the 1800s.

Based on those stats, many of our founding fathers live long lives over the average — George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin….

Correct. They had no concept of thoroughly washing one's hands with soap and water before assisting in a delivery, resulting in puerperal fever (introduction of outside bacteria into the vaginal canal).

As the twentieth century drew to a close it seemed possible that the elements were in place for a reunion of Renaissance’s classic line-up. A reunion duly occurred but significantly without bassist Jon Camp or lyricist Betty Thatcher-Newsinger. In the event, John Tout was able to participate in only a few of the recording sessions, adding his trademark piano to the keyboard orchestra of new boy Mickey Simmonds. Annie Haslam took on the role of lyricist while Camp was replaced by Alex Caird on bass.
