And one of the guys in the greek god family tree.
I'll edit this post with a better description.

EDIT: Calliope was the muse of epic poetry, born, as were all of the muses, from Mnemosyne and Zeus (Like that one doesn't fit himself literally everywhere in that family tree hot damn).

You know. I'm going to have to sift through that god family tree again to try and find uu's class now right?

BRAINWAVE!

So, the Cherubim (fandom) were "already there", yes?

They created Hussie's universe, who created the Troll's universe, and they the Humans (No, Hussie isn't human. He's a Hussie), who then created the Cherubim. There we go. I was thinking of a fourth race that no-one had heard of, but the fourth race was already there. It was Hussie.

By the way, I've heard people pronounce Calliope cal-ee-ope.  It's kuh-lye-uh-pee.

I just realized that uu=LE is pretty much guaranteed judging by his personality.

What about Lord English's personality makes it comparable to uu's? There's not a lot to go on on that point.

Guy doesn't even like pool as far as we know.

Last night I had some big revelation about CALliope and what that meant for LE's name, and then I fell asleep and forgot.

That it's ***malsis? That's the big revelation I had.

Oh hey, yeah. That's what it was. So I think uu's name will contain another part of Calmasis. Not too big, but interesting.

Okay, I looked through wikipedia's list of greek mythological figures, and I found a few with "cal".
Calchas, an Argive seer who aided the Greeks during the Trojan War
Caletor, the name of two men involved in the Trojan War
Calesius, Axylus' charioteer
Calydon, eponym of Calydon, Aetolia

Are just a few. I couldn't find any with "mas" or "masis" that would fit as being a single character though. Might try again tomorrow.

I'm willing to bet that uu is NOT Lord English, come to think of it. It'd make the inevitable confrontation a bit of a letdown if they could shut him down just by shouting "Calliope". Although, then again, Hussie could be going for the exact opposite of DMK.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Just make him go to sleep. They'd still have to figure out how to deal with him since he's apparently indestructible. Also you have to make sure to yell at him before you get the crap shot out of you.
