Thank you my friend. I finally had time to click on the link you gave and read.
Just as I remembered it when reading it as a 13 year old boy. I wrote an essay on it and received an A+
by my very strict teacher, who was a huge fan of Greek mythology.
They used to have teachers that were like that-- that truly inspired young boys and young girls to read and enjoy classic literature..-Tyr
