From the Mouth of a Child

Teacher: When you see the letters "BC"  at the end of a year, what does that tell you?

Student: It stands for "Before Christ," so you know that it was a year before Jesus was born.

Teacher: Good. And about when we see "AD?"

Student #2: It means it is a year after Jesus was born.

Teacher: Right!

Student #3: I know why they didn't use "AC."

Teacher: You do? Why is that?

Student #3: Because AC is air-conditioning. (laughing) It wouldn't make sense to say '1410 air-conditioning.'
