Thanks.  And stay unlurked. It's too bad we can't discuss the Heroes 
Journey archtypes, here, without things breaking down in flames, 
since it was such a vital part of the show from the beginning.  I 
take it you're familiar with Joseph Campbell?

Choosing the Isis and Osiris version of the resurrection myth (by 
name, yet, given who Willow called on) has some particularly 
interesting implications.  Oh well...
