I guess that begs the question as to when and why our historical
bretheren (current ones) started calling the ladies "nymphs".  There is
a clear heirarchical structure to the women (queen, attendants, ladies).
 Is it because they are playing in the water and in barrels?  Just
curious.

As the nymphs seem to be among the earliest attestations of Maxwell's
daemons, they probably aren't really human, anatomically or in scale.
