> Re: Split personalities:
It may or may not be of interest that Latin 'luna' and its
derivative 'lunacy' have as their basis the early Latin
'louks-ma' with its stem yielding 'lux' = 'light'

P.S.: for "personal reasons" I have been silent for a few weeks:
but if I can remember how to work these gadgets you are possibly
no longer sheltered from my intrusions!

P. P. S. If you don't receive this message, ignore it.
