Re: VMs: michiton oladabas explained
Make that "Myst". I personally prefer "Zork Nemesis",
but Myst is
nevertheless a fine game.
Ahh ... how is ol' Zork these days :-)
Ok ... one more ...

the next group ... IMI DEOD the upsidedown triangle is
Greek "D"
IMI is a Hebrew word for sea (see Klein).
Now, correct me if I am wrong here, but, DEOD references ...
people?
According to
http://www.euronet.nl/users/warnar/lambertmoll.html
"Wilhelmus van Nassaue, ben ik van Dietsen
bloed",
meaning Wilhelmus van Nassaue (=William the Silent), I am of Dutch´
Origin.
Originally the word "Dutch" is the Old-Saxian substantive
"Thiudisk". The same word occurs in other languages :
Flemish (Old Dutch) = Diets or Duutsch or Duytsch
Gothic = Diudisko, Diuda
Old Norwegian = Djode
Old Frisian = Thyad (Thyode)
Old Irish = Tuaths
Lithuanian = Tauta
Old English (before Shakespeare) = Deod
Latin = Toutonus
Danish = Thy (Thythesaxl)
In all these cases the word means "Us, the People" or
"fellow citizens".
OK ... so then, from the ... myst ... in order of creation, came the sea
and people??

Jim
