Wei asks, "What do we know about JL?" Jack LaZebnik was actually aka Jack "the Little Zipper" Dukatenscheisser who was a felonious, alchemist, con-man who after a brief apprenticeship in the law firm of Dukatenscheisser, Geldbaum, and Schlitzohr was assigned a seat on the Federal Reserve Board, but from then on promised to swear that it was the Virgin Mary he saw, and she was fully clad, not Mrs.Roosevelt in the buff. Now in another vein, Pound wrote in "The Spirit of Romance", "There is a magnificent thesis to be written on the role of Fortune, coming down through the Middle Ages, from pagan mythology, via Seneca, into Guido and Dante." Has anyone out there ever heard of any serious pursuit of this topic?It is one which intrigues me as a neo-pagan scholar and a poor gambler. Curious, Charles Moyer
