Sadly, I don't have my books, so I can't go as in depth as dissecting goes.
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

Took a look at my schedule, and it looks like I'll be able to do Garroting Deep by deadline.

Attn: Watch members! Dissecting Elena
In Dissecting the Land we have lost our "read-leader" 4 chapters 21 & 22: Lena's Daughter & Anundivian Yajna. Starting in 1 hour from this post Dromond and I are going to begin to host a "round table" discussion on these chapters--but we desperately need your input! You posts don't need to be long, if you just want ask questions that's ok, if you actively want to help us 'flesh out" and outline the chapters that would b great. If this experiment works, over the course of the weekend we'll keep it. If not we'll do the formal format on Monday, or I will...
This 'experiment' won't work without other member's involvement. So please help, if you can, even if you haven't read these chapters just one or two little questions will help...PM me if you have futher questions thanks-danlo
