"Some criticize Common Era notation as a euphemism that does not alter the pivotal year one still centering on the life of Jesus. Many others criticize the notation as an unnecessary attempt at political correctness." ========= Well, I didn't especially like what they said. I just pulled it because it was the first thing I found. I wish I could remember where and when I found something that used another notation. It may have been common era or not. It was an international group, like the UN, but I don't think it was them. When I first read it I didn't know what the heck they were talking about, then the shoe finally fell that it was a different notation. I guess I was saying, Keith, don't be surprised if you start seeing a new one or new ones. I think the idea is spreading.
