... with an even more interesting answer:
The way Dionysius set it up, there was no time BETWEEN 1 BC and 1 AD.
1 BC was the year immediately preceding 1 AD (I think we have pretty well established by now that there was no year zero). Therefore, 1 BC ended at midnight on the last day of that year (the ancient equivalent of New Year's Eve!). And 1 AD started the next instant. No time BETWEEN.
Sorry, Pete, but there was only two years involved here if you count from the START of 1 BC to the END of 1 AD. ----- jim o\-S
