           Salvete Omnes!

 I would be interested in the meaning of the Latin word "hortus". I think it is in connection with the Roman architecture but I don't know more.

Could anybody tell me something about this subject?

Gratias maximas!

Now you've got me curious, for purely Trekkie reasons. I always thought 'Horta' was a made-up word, but I can see where the name for that alien would make perfect sense, if the Latin meaning of it concerned architecture. Might it have something to do with tunnels or digging? (I have no Latin dictionary handy.)

Maybe Saturninus will get a web-based cista together, even though it's technically the responsibility of an election's presiding magistrate.

Subject: [Nova-Roma] A New Citizen's Greetings

   Salve,

 As this is my first post, I would like to introduce myself to the republic. My name is Sextus Antonius Costa and I have been a citizen of Nova Roma for about two months now. I live in the Provincia America Austrorientalis.
I have lived in this region all of my life although my ancestry traces it's roots to Hispania. I look forward to getting in touch with other citizens in the region and throughout the republic and engaging in all the fascinating topics that abound on all things Roman.

  Vale,

  S. Antonius Costa

> Nova Roma has too many problems and too few people willing to get their hands dirty to fix them. Often, when someone proposes a solution, it is not only discarded but berated. Instead of working, people "organize" and "plan" excessively. The religio is not healthy, and Latin is almost non-existent. The magistracies are ineffective and the senate holds too much power. And there is way too much bad blood and enmity between people. What needs to be realized is that Nova Roma is truly dying, and that one must not plan a complex operation, but should simply stop the bleeding and assess the situation; it is triage. If there is a way to save it, you do. If not, you let it die.
> I have been here for one year. After doing much research into Nova Roma's problems and its history, I see the chances of anything that could resemble Nova Roma's success are slim, at best. Nova Roma is a failure, both as a non-profit organization and as a society of supposedly like-minded individuals. I am unwilling to expend any more of my time and energy here.

Salvete.

silence.

Here you are presented with a *long-term* solution to a very serious problem that is well within our means to adopt, yet there is no response. Not even a question about who or where or how or what.

Carry on, working hard.

Valete,
