No BC or AD? Fine, how about we call the current year 228 US. New Years Day will from now on occur on July 4.

Oh, you don't like this? Suck lemons.

That sounds like a good way to measure time to me! When we invade France, we can make them do it that way too! BTW, CUTE BABY! Also; what DOES happen when you get an electrical engineer wet?

That's actually a very sensible idea (if one is chucking out one's Christian heritage), the Romans dated from the foundation of the City. I have been known to add Anno Regis Elizabetha 53 to the date (the 53rd year of the reign of Queen Elizabeth).

The only problem then is that you have to know that the Queen came to the throne in 1952, and I have to know that the U.S. was founded in 1776, and we both have to know that Kenya was granted independence in 1963. Many dates to remember for international relations.

I like it!! Maybe a constitutional amendment is in order?

I could deal with that. Rome dated ab urbe condida.
