Last night attended the little dessert party at Sherbrook.

Played Suveh Nux, highly recommended.

Borrowed "Scott Pilgrim" 1-4 from chrisamaphone. Read the first one over lunch. It brought to mind many questions, such as Who Is This Ramona Flowers character and What Is Her Deal Anyway, and Why Did I Wait So Long to get around to Reading Scott Pilgrim It is

THIS COMMENT INCIDENTALLY CONTAINS A SPOILER FOR SUVEH NUX (highlight to read)

So it occurred to me as I was typing "fiat lux" into Suveh Nux last night (it has no effect) that the title of the game is essentially Fiat Lux but in a made-up language. This occurred to me as I was wondering why exactly the author would name the game after that particular spell.

Although in retrospect I guess Latin, while it sounds cool, isn't exactly the canonical language for that phrase, and the more familiar rendering to many people would be [highlight to read] "Let there be light."

And if you take the etymology hinted at for "nux" as canonical (which I'm not sure I do) then it's more "let there not be night! ^_^

I thought we were taking all of these things as givens when we were talking about it last night.
