    You'll forgive me for a little skepticism, I hope...? Iain.

    I am one of "those foreigners coming over here and stealing our jobs". Yay me!

      Not computer related but this is the main place I know with picky educated people! (and some daft ones too...) My better half needs a latin version of: "I think therefore I am sleepless", and between us we have: "Cogito, ergo insomnis sum" But I'm not sure of tense, etc. Anyone fancy themselves a latin scholar? Iain.

      cogito ergo Nihil enim somni is the best I can come up with. I had to time-travel back to the year 3 and chat so some roman soldiers, who talked for ages about their fields and who they loved, for some reason.

        What would you know about Latin? You're a furriner! You Italians and your modern new fangled languages... Iain. (ps, thanks, and long time no chat)

            Back in High School I could have solved that for you, but I can't improve on what you two have come up with. Perhaps 'sans somnis' might work in place of 'insomnis' but it's been 40+ years since I've had a Roman to talk to. Aquilae non faecat in effigiebus! ;P
