Misquote in Adynaton?

(Also posted to Talk:Adynaton)
Thanks for commenting on the article.

The quote is to be found in the satire The pumpkinification of Claudius (traditionally ascribed to Seneca). I was working from a translation by Robert Graves to be found at the back of the book Claudius the God in which the wording was as in the article. This site translates the passage as: What hour it was I cannot certainly tell; philosophers will agree more often than clocks, but the meaning is the same. Written today, the saying is less pithy since clocks are highly accurate, but in AD 54, the year of Claudius's death, water clocks kept poor time and differed widely.

Your account will be renamed

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Peligro. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Peligro~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
