No, not really, because in order to get to the origin of culture, we very
much need to move FORWARD!

Dear Ingmar, Ron, Jacqueline

Subject: LL-L "Traditions" 2006.04.14 (09) [E]

Just another pebble tossed in the Traditions string. It tickled me in my
childhood that an eagle was called 'arend' in the Taal, & a message was
called 'errand'. It seemed to me there had to be a connection, & now of
course I know there is. Throughout European tradition from the Odyessy to
the sagas & elsewhere you read of the eagle casting augeries in its flight.

Yrs,
Mark
