Bill, I was using AD (Anno Domini) interchangeably with CE (common or Christian era). The period I'm hoping to start a new discussion on is 31/32 C.E. (death of Jesus) to May 22, 337 C.E. (death of Constantine). When Robin returned some excellent serves from a number of FFL posters the focus was the 13th centuryand 1943 (I believe the 1943 reference concerned the bombing by the Allies of the Benedictine Monastery at Mount Cassino). http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,796392,00.html
