SB>Yeah -- there are all those people interpreting everything about the
SB>Aztecs and the Mayans.  It's downright disgusting at times.
  what's disgusting is that none of them are aztecs or mayans...
SB>I researched Nostroamus once.  I took a book from 1910 that interpreted
SB>his prophecies; and another from 1980.  Then I checked the same
SB>quatrains, and found totally different interpretations.  It's all in the
SB>eye of the beholder, I think.
nostradamus is a cash cow.  because he hadda be especially cautious due
to the seditious libel laws at the time, anybody can read almost anything
into his work.  so if i have connections & wanna publish a book, well... ;)
SB>RR> lore.  but what of other NAs?  does any oral tradition survive?
SB>
SB>Lots of oral tradition survives.  The problem is: you probably aren't
SB>going to find anybody who will tell it to you, even if they happen to
SB>know it.
all too true.  but i couldnt blame them fer that.  they dunno whether i'm
gonna turn into one of those fake mayans or aztecs & write a book!  :D
