wow>re Esse Quam Videri -- translate please? Something about truth?
That was a good guess, given my penchant for it, but NO - Esse Quam Videri, which also aptly describes many, if not most, native North Carolinians (can't speak for the many transplants there now) is: TO BE RATHER THAN TO SEEM.
I think your suggestion of translating we don't need no motto into Latin is BRILLIANT - can we do it BEFORE the 14th and introduce it to the world, via the board of course, at the same time as Ali unveils her "Happy Anniversary of the Birth of AWADtalk" graphic???
I'm NOT a Latin scholar by any stretch, but I'll work on it - any others game?
