Call me slow, but I have no idea what Anu is referring to in the cryptic introduction of his banner ad for AWADchat, that appears on AWADtalk today, namely:
Is dentist in for no today?
The ad continues:
Yes! Join us Jan 16, 8-9 PM EST U.S. (Jan 17, 1-2 AM GMT), for an online chat with Robert Hollander and Jean Hollander, translators of Dante's Inferno.
My first thought was that the chat session was scheduled for dentist's time, 2.30 ("tooth hurtie"), but that wasn't it.
Perhaps an example of a(n infamous) failed translation?
Enlighten me please, someone.
(Oh, and hope you can make the chat - unfortunately there's something about my computer and/or network internet/proxy server setup that prevents me logging in to the chats.)
