¡Caramba!
Quem ad modum dicendum est "utterly outclassed"?

Stan T. of A.N.L. (or maybe our Bogotan friend is to blame) likes
Minnesotianam for Minnesotanam. Just another example of that pesky
intrusive Italian I.
Is the Ephemeris a daily now? A lot of solecisms or maybe just typos are
creeping in lately.
in:
"Vi responsurum se pronuntiavit regimen Coreae Septentrionalis, si naves
eius a vicinis sui australibus ascendantur. Sequitur." if the
antecedent of sui[s] is regimen, then why can't it read naves suae? Eius
might be needed if it weren't for the passive ascendantur. Even so why
declare war against a people for boarding their own ships?

Why later do I read "portos" for "portus?" Whence this cacoethes nova
verba cudendi?

I'm surprised you didn't find this 6 years ago, Unka Jon. Anyway that
journalist is a fine specimen of British womanflesh (if her picture is
recent). She is somewhat redolent of 99, Maxwell Smart's smarter sidekick.

Monitoring its home page with the aid of http://page2rss.com/ and Google
Reader, I can see today's second update - a short item about the terrae motus
in Honduras.

My, how time flies as we eddy towards the everlasting plughole!
