In Response To: Re: Poetic... which one (SiliconDream =PN=)

: I'm the 6th-year Latin student with a fat Cassell's
: dictionary on my shelf, and it means "poetic
: madness." Anyone disagrees, I'll get Joy to
: delete their Asylum Night unit.

: Harrumph. :-)

: --SiliconDream

While "furor" is Latin for "madness" the phrase "furor poeticus" is a "poetic frenzy".

Sometimes dictionaries just don't cut it.

You can delete my Asylum Night unit anyday! ;-)

Cheers
