We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.
Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.

Thanato - death
Kephaloides - (well, kephalos means "head", hence encephalon = brain)
but, pushing Kephaloides into google brings back:
resident of Cefalu, which is a town in Sicily.

I think the name means "death to the elites" or something like that. What Cefalu has to do with it, I don't know.

Kephaloides - (well, kephalos means "head", hence encephalon = brain)

.... and the ending -oides meaning "like".

It's pidgin Greek for "Dead head" (as in Grateful Dead). It arose from TOP (Daily Kos) waaay back before everything there went to the Christians' Hell in a fire non-resistant handbasket. Another Grateful Dead head user already had the name "Dead Head" sewn up, so I went the pidgin Greek route.

(That same user is also "Dead Head" here as well.)

I think the name means "death to the elites" or something like that.

"Death to the elites" works out to θάνατο στους πλούσιους or some such.

It's TK. Over at TOP (Daily Kos) those initials get the user "teacherken", but around here, "tk" is me.

"Sean" works, too; I'm out.
