Richard Zvonar wrote: "Divining omens from the flight of birds wasn't specific to Tiresias, though he probably served as a model for those who came later (according to some, Tiresias was a contemporary of Cadmus and therefore was late Bronze Age). Our own word "auspices" comes from the Latin "avem specere" = "to see the bird." Is there anything that you don't know, Richard? You blow me away and I say that without a trace of post modern irony and with a ton of respect............ Loop.pooL Rick
