I really enjoy Catalog's extensive use of Latin. It provides a nice bit of continuity with ''Ghosts of Onyx'' and (to a lesser extent) ''Halo 3''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s terminals. ''"Cuius est solum eius est usque ad coelum"'' is a legal term. It essentially means (in modern parlance) "He who owns a piece of land also owns the local airspace." --[[User:Braidenvl|<span style="color:gray">'''''Our vengeance is at hand.'''''</span>]] [[File:Gravemind.svg|14px]] ([[User talk:Braidenvl|<span style="color:gray">Talk to me.</span>]]) 18:14, 7 July 2014 (EDT) | I really enjoy Catalog's extensive use of Latin.

==Shadow of Intent at Earth== | |||
I found it interesting that the ''Shadow of Intent'' was mentioned as leaving on March 3, 2553. This we knew from the end of Halo 3. What was interesting is that Catalog said it got to Earth on February 29 which is interesting since that would be a leap year day and a date like 2553 ending on an odd number wouldn't be a leap year. Guess Catalog isn't infallible. Also the extra "e" in many uses of the word "judgment" as "judgement" throughout its posts makes me cringe. -[[User:ScaleMaster117|ScaleMaster117]] ([[User talk:ScaleMaster117|talk]]) 22:38, 7 July 2014 (EDT) | |||
