mike, All of a sudden, everybody's using the dead language. Remember squetch with " ad libitum"? And now you with "pax et bonum". Interestingly, when one combines certain elements of both expressions, one arrives at the infamous motto of Count Dracula, " bitum et bonum". Bernie. P.S. So that no one gets the wrong udea, "bitum" derives from the same root as bituminous, as in a kind of coal." Bonum" derives from thr Latin word for "good". Therefore a loose translation could be "Good energy." Of course, the Count himself might have intended "Good and Hard". As everyone knows "et" in Latin means "and". "Bitum" can be taken as a modifier that describes the kind of coal, e.g. "hard".
