I'm with the Prince on this one, I can barely remember dreaming. Although I did have a very vivid dream last night (coincidental or transcedental?) Mine involved flying in a plane - but no ordinary one mind you. It was one of those "fly by wire" versions - and I mean it literally flew by w...

I figure TC was so that he could say TCTC :D

As for Lord Foul, didn't he have a different title when he was a lord? I wish these books were on CD and searchable :)

Another angle I just thought of. Maybe the word "Foul" conjured up no ill thoughts and was as normal as saying Lord Charles.

It's not like the language was a total copy of english as we know it.
