Dear Visitor,
Welcome to Forsanethaed!
May I explain this strange title, which may sound like Old English? Or Welsh?\
Actually, it is Latin, through which I struggled for 4 years (it only seemed like 10).
The quotation, from Vergil, "Forsan et haec olim miminisse iuvabit" translates as:
Perhaps some day it will be a joy to recall even these things.
Our Latin teacher liked this quotation, and knew we would identify with it.
(I tried to get the address 'forsanethaec', but it was not available.)
Starting this Blog is a huge adventure. Today is two days before autumn starts, 2007.

This is a great quote and a great title for a blog. I think without a doubt that there will be a day when you will recall these days and exercises with joy.
Your blog name reminds me of my 11th grade Latin teacher. He always took great offense at the contention that Latin is a dead language. He would say, "If it is a dead language then it's the livliest ghost I have ever seen!"
