'BCE' and 'CE'== 

 Let's stop this stupid nonsense of 'BCE' and 'CE'.  The terms BC and AD are quite in order and amply adequate.  Interestingly enough, BCE can stand for Before the Christian Era and CE for [pertaining to] the Christian Era.  Another example where political correctness shoots itself in the foot.  I encourage all readers to edit out BCE and CE wherever they are found.
