18. Oooooo!!! I can hardly wait to read "Consevapedia Commandments"

That's a real loaded one, I'll bet.

Let's see...

Ooooo! I *love* number four:

When referencing dates based on the approximate birth of Jesus, give appropriate credit for the basis of the date (B.C. or A.D.). "BCE" and "CE" are unacceptable substitutes because they deny the historical basis. See CE.

Historic basis? That's precisely why historians have changed to the more accurate CE and BCE. Jesus was *not* born in year "zero". So, BC is historically *inaccurate*.

Jesus! Indeed. What a bunch of macaroons!?
