From Ben Warmus:
I was reading through your back issues (way back to Issue 5) and found your discussion on myriad. You said the root myriados meant exactly "10,000". In studying Chinese culture I found that they have been using the term "the 10,000 things" for longer than recorded history. They had no word to encompass everything, but instead used the phrase "the 10,000 things."
Fascinating! Isn't that the number they symbolize with the swastika?
