Oh, crap, no phone for him, he was the guy with the lit lamp running about in daylight, in ancient Greece, looking for an honest man.
I heard from my dad, who lives near DC, that Demosthenes is frequently sighted soemwhere between the Lincoln Memorial and the Capitol building, on the mall, still looking for that honest man 2500 years later! :) How he avoided skin cancer in all that time, what with wearing a toga looking robe thing, is beyond me.
Maybe he too was dipped into the River Styx.
Which makes me wonder: is that where the term Dipstick comes from? DipStyx?
*caffeine overload!*
