[Cronos]

WEll, i don't think too much of Nietszche -- he does seem to have slipped into dementia quite often. Shoudl speak (spake) to a Zoroastrian fire temple priest to get hte real low down on the gatas

His dementia (paecox), from tertiary syphillis, ended his productive life. He lived a vegetative, catatonic life for quite a while (I believe about 11 years), under the tutelage of his proto-Nazi sister who (ab)used his out-of-context writings for her politicial party's gains. He even predicted that she would do that before he lost his mind.
