 		TRIVIA Trithemius and Sibyl
Trithemius seems to have found the Cumaean Sibyl interesting too, but then there's little he didn't find interesting I suppose.

Quote:

De Septem Secundeis Trithemius
In these times Sybilla Cumana was much spoken of, and grew famous;
who brought 9 books to Tarquinius Priscus the King to be bought
for a certain price; in which were contained the reason, order, and succession
of future Avisements, of the whole common-wealth of the Romans.
But when the King refused to give her the price demanded, Sybilla
the King seeing it) burnt the three first books, demanding the same
price for the other six; which when again he had denyed to give her, she
committed to be burnt three of those remaining, and would have done so
by the rest; unless the King by perswasion and Councell of others,
had not redeemed them from consuming, giving the same price for the three
last, for which he might have had the whole nine.

 		This story about the cumaean sibyl keeps coming up. She offers Nine books, reduced
to 6 and then to 3 but the price remains the same. Greywethers is trying to give
us a clue or hint to the login. First mathmatically and now thru mythology and fables.
I don't get it. I know it's there but I don't get it. CAROL responds to the "Numbered
Ones" question with the same numbers and a few others... "Which numbers? 3? 6? 9?
7? or 0? Oh, I missed a few didn't I? May be a dead issue."


Could greywethers be one of or an agent for the Numbered Ones? Greywethers is a
part of the DEGs?
Could 3, 6, 9, 7 and zero be a clue to the login puzzle?
