Welcome
Greek
The teachers at St. Paul's Illiberal Day Carcel for Pubescent Male Virgins except-for-omerta-sanitary-services-for-jocks should have taught me ancient Greek to be able to read Heraclitus and Parmenides and so forth in the original. As friends who have all things in common, per Plato, not post-13th Amendment masters of non-ocular pupils, they should have nourished my young soul to grow in leisured learning of the Greek language and academic culture, in daily re[-]creations[1] of Plato's Symposium (the medium, not necessarily the message). They did not; they were πολλοι: "Everything that crawls is tended by (god's) (whip) blow." (Heraclitus, frag. 11)
