Borepatch, I’m a fairly recent visitor. Unless you’re using a hitherto unknown version of Roman numerals, shouldn’t that be CCLXXIV?

Thanks, Borepatch. Those wacky Romans, they picked up many influences on their own culture from the lands they conquered into their empire. I suspect that many of them were chemical influences, apart from the mead and wine paid as part of the subjugated nation’s tribute.
