Very non-PC? From that very  Wikipedia posting:

"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.
