"Thy Godlike crime was to be kind, To render with thy precepts less The sum of human wretchedness, And strengthen Man with his own mind;" - Lord Byron Shelley, Prometheus

{| MYTHOLOGY (adapted from Wikipedia)|}
Promethus was -- is -- a Titan and the only one currently awake and not dead. Blessed with a clever mind, he was tasked with carving mortal man out of clay, which endeared them to him. He became their champion, against the will of the gods, and particularly, Zeus.
Though he sided with the Olympians when they waged war against the Titans, the rivalry between Prometheus and Zeus drew on. He tricked Zeus (and the rest of the gods) into accepting only the less useful parts of animals for sacrifice, leaving the best bits for men. He snuck fire to mankind against Zeus's will, thus not only keeping them warm and protecting them from danger, but kindling their curiosity.
He was punished for his tricks by being chained to a rock and having his liver eaten daily by a giant eagle. By night it would regenerate.
He was freed when Zeus was destroyed, not that he knew the reason at the time. Not that he cared. He took advantage and indulged in the world for a while.
He is indirectly responsible for the creation of Pandora.
Etc. Etc.

I am often around, though I do tend to wander off. I'm currently primarily a small business owner, so I have the luxury of making my own hours. That also means I may be doing work at all hours, so patience is a good thing.
