Here's my candidate for a cut:
On a quiz titled: Examining Archeology - IV .. Question 27 read:
27. Remember: Decade = 10 years; Century = 100 years; Millennium = 1,000 years; C.E. = Common
Era; B.C.E. = Before Common Era; How many years between 1500 C.E. and 1000 B.C.E.?
___________________
jb} The suggestion is that the whole {C.E.} {B.C.E.} is so complicated that we have to instruct
on it's usage!
Please bring back B.C. & A.D.
