Reply to Weelittledrummer How jaded you are! Thank God you weren't around in the days of Spartacus and the slave revolt in ancient Rome. With you around we would all still be dragging around chain and balls and working on a chain gang. I can picture you back then: ROMAN MASTER: "Which one of you is Spartacus? Speak up now and you will have a clean death and not the crucifixation we plan for him! SPARACUS: I am Spartacus! SLAVE: No ,I am Spartacus! SECOND SLAVE No, Iam Spartacus! THIRD SLAVE I am SPARTACUS! FOURTH SLAVE [WEELITTLEDRUMMER ] Oh,I can't be bothered with this ! That's Spartacus over there .The guy with the dimple! Take him .I don't know why he led this uprising anyway.It would have never worked. Funny but when Karl Marx was asked who was his favourite figure from history he replied "Spartacus" ...and Weelittledrummer or his ancient Roman equivalent did not get a mention. Albert
