I'm always given a little smile when people say "remember you are mortal" because I remember the Latin of said phrase, "memento mori", which is actually literally "remember to die." I have no idea how that became it's meaning; it seems to me that the phrase in question should have been "memento te moriturum esse" or similar.

Anyway, good to hear how this is coming along guys, hope it does well.
