Poisonally,doc, i yam sikened by the CE and BCE crap. CE is Common error, which began when? With the death of CHRIST, sic. CE is AD. So let us not offend people like me who are traditionalists. Of course BCE is a Waste of ink & paper for the environmentalists. The E is an extra letter. Lets go back to BC and save a tree.
Correction. C.E. as with A.D. starts with the birth of Christ not His death.
If they don’t like “B.C.” and “A.D.” tell them the letters stand for “backwards counting” and “advancing dates.”
