Dear John Galt,
I am afraid your Latin is not correct; your quotation should read "ad=20
nauseam".
On a related note, this specific mistake is rather frequent.=20
More significantly, it seems that, whenever you are quoting from Latin=20
in a [more or less] serious or even emphatic context, the probability=20
of making such a mistake/typo/error increases :-))=20
Best regards,
Salvo
