Why is it that Australians including seemingly articulate ones, say without further adieu instead of the correct without further ado? Adieu means goodbye (as in So long, farewell auf wiedesehen adieu). Ado means fuss (as in Much Ado about Nothing). The saying means without further fuss. The intro to Randy writes a Novel has the same mistake. You expect professional wordsmiths to get that right.
