Wait, wait, wait!  I don't want it in latin either!  I think we should be
able to use the language we use now so that anyone seeing it will know
the meaning as soon as they see it instead of having to run to someone
who knows what it means.   To me, this would tell everyone that our
Barony is different and an individual one that isn't going to try to keep
up with the Jones just because it seems cool.   I meant no disrespect
when I replied to Nyx's idea.
