columbus: You say "sanitarium" I say "sanatorium" - 04/15/11 02:42 AM
"You say tomato...   
I say tomahto....
Lets Call The Whole Thing Off "
Wikipedia says:
"A sanatorium (also spelled sanitorium and sanitarium) is a medical facility for long-term illness, most typically associated with treatment of tuberculosis (TB) before antibiotics.
