(Anything said in Latin sounds profound. Fools laugh at the Latin language!)

I'm still learning Latin, so any accomplished Latinists, please forgive any incorrect declensions and conjugations.

I think Latin is an excellent choice for the motto, and even though not many people can read it, it does tie in with the spirit of inclusiveness we're trying to go for here. Latin was once the universal language of Europe, something many people understood even if they didn't understand the other's vernacular. There are people from all over the world on XMarks, some of whom do not speak English as a first language. That's just my thoughts on it. I think gaelic is a good choice, too, but I'm partial to Latin.

Vade in pace,
Nick
