What's your source for this? I looked at the greekbible.com entry, which
matches your earlier email. I don't know ancient or 'old' Greek, but I'm
familiar enough with modern Greek to know that it's pretty darn close to the
modern Greek for the number 666, spelled
exakosies exointa exi
(pronounced: eksakosee-es ekseenda eksy)
I'm unaware of the aspirated 'h' (chi: x) being in front of the 6 root.
Though, heck, maybe those outdated accent marks did indicate some kind of
aspiration. That transliterated 'h' appears in several English-from-Greek
words that don't have it in Greek, e.g. ydra/hydra, ygro/hygro-, etc).

Subject: Masada-Live, Favorites?
For those who have all (or nearly all) of Masada's
Live releases - which one is your favorite?
I like Live in Middleheim
and, of course, the 2001 Tonic CD...

Insofar as the coercive powers of government are to be used to insure that particular people get particular things, it requires a kind of discrimination between, and an unequal treatment of, different people which is irreconcilable with a free society.

in fairness to the band, they ditched the "altcountry" tag after their 2nd
album, Being There. Summerteeth wasn't altcountry in the least, and was a
clear step in the direction on Yankee Hotel foxtrot. the production on
both albums has some amazing moments.

Well,
there's a track on LIVE IN TAIPEI that
(I may be wrong) doesn't appear in any of the
studio recordings: Gevurah
Here there's a brilliant sax solo that launches
one of (I think) Douglas' most astonishing solos.
And the interplay with Baron in this solo is brilliant.
I'd really like to listen to another version of Gevurah
(live or studio) but can't find it.
The main theme of Gevurah appears also at the end
of Karaim in LIVE AT TONIC, the mix is real genius!
Ciao
