The Ancient Greeks also thought that there were only four elements, only allowed
men to vote and called it democracy, had no problem making captured enemy
warriors into slaves, believed there were dozens (if not hundreds) of gods, and
thought you could tell the future by looking at the guts of dead chickens or
steam coming out of holes in the ground (such as at the Oracle of Delphi).

Telling me that the Greeks liked rectangles doesn't impress me too much <vbg>.

regards,
frank
