nothing wrong with that if spelled properly ;)

""Sanitarium is the much older word, for it was used long before the twentieth century to apply to health resorts--many of which became famous for their combination of comfortable and even luxurious quarters with good food and the use of water from mineral springs that we in early days supposed to be beneficial, both for bathing and for drinking of the mineral water. We at once think of the wonderfully popular resort of Bath in England, similar resorts in Germany, and later many health resorts at Saratoga Springs north of Albany in New York State. Modeled after them were smaller resorts in many other countries, and, as a local example, there was, about sixty years ago, a popular sanitarium, known as Sulphur Springs Hotel, in Ancaster Township, Ontario, situated at the Sulphur Springs about three miles northwest of the village."

we are definitely an exclusive club of aged vets :laugh:

True, Tibs. And only the rich used to be able to go, was a luxury. But what's a sanataorium?
