A request on dates - please use AD/BC as unit suffixes

Bizarre or not, Adrian. There is no year zero in the BC-AD compilation. I (and most professors) simply live with it, and don't find it ungainly. Blush

I was aware of that fact Alan, just pointing out that there was a period when the time line for a year was actually nearly two years long.

Its all moot anyway as time is a concept that exists only in our minds as we have a need to measure things.
