Oh in fact this story is not really well known. Let me explain : once upon a time it was a man named NUDIUS because he was always nude as he had been striken by a very odd illness that made him suffering from every contact of clothes whatever they were. And of course he could not go out nude because people would have been schocked. So he had to choose a way to stay alive and being able to go out from time to time. He chose to become a monk, a CISTERTIAN. That way he could sing and be forgiven for being nude all the time.
 
This strange and very unpleasant illness was named after him : NUDIUSTERTIAN. That means that if you suffer from this you must become a CISTERTIAN monk not to be locked in a jail or in an asylum !
 
By the way I �m writing this explanation from my nude cell in the most modern asylum of my country !

It �s a sort of malaria "tertian fever" that occurs to the US beach nudists (especially when they expose their naked bodies to the sweltering sunshine in the summer).

NUDIUSTERTIAN

It�s someone who has no new creative ideas to write about. It�s like being naked among a crowd.  Embarrassed

Nudiustertian - this is an adjective which describes a person who lives in a nest in the tree tops. It helps to be very light.
