How Relevant is ASCII?


When I read about "le roi cornu" in Lloyd Alexander a few months ago, first time I read the French translation, I recalled that in English that would be the horned king, and recalled that Wiccans call Satan "the horned god".

I few days ago, I wondered about Theseus, as son of Poseidon. I looked at THESEVS but also at THESEA (accusative of THESEVS).

Well, Poseidon can also be called "the sea".

And the difference between "THESEA" and "the sea" is, each upper case is exchanged to a lower case, add six times 32 and a space is added, add another 32.

Now, look at this:
