Respect my diversity

    For Chris, Renata and all of our wonderful lunchtime companions, here is what my Latinist has to say re: our new slogan- 'Respect my diversity':

    "A good rendering would be: meam varietatem salutate
    (the verb salutare meaning respect in the sense of 'pay respect to')

    Another might be: meam varietatem veremini
    (the verb vereor meaning respect in the sense of 'respect out of fear or awe')"

    Feel free to use whichever suits your fancy.

    Jenny

    Am I correct in hearing that in my head as uttered by a cartoon character, say, one whom one would encounter on the Comedy Channel?

    Well darlin', I can't take responsibility for those voices in your head. ;) Besides, my head is still ringing with the music of the colloquium. BTW, it was a pleasure to meet you. Only 51 more weeks to go until next year!

    Shhhhhhhhhh... I'm trying to keep that under wraps. (The existence of the voices, not my head.)
    "it was a pleasure to meet you."
    Right back at ya!
