That kinda freaks me out! Didn't they dig a little deep for that one?! :) What ever happend to the "Rangers" or the "Bulls" too wishy washy? demon n 1: one of the evil spirits of traditional Jewish and Christian belief [syn: {devil}, {fiend}, {daemon}, {daimon}] 2: a cruel wicked and inhuman person [syn: {monster}, {fiend}, {devil}, {ogre}] 1. (Gr. Antiq.) A spirit, or immaterial being, holding a middle place between men and deities in pagan mythology. The demon kind is of an intermediate nature between the divine and the human. --Sydenham. 2. One's genius; a tutelary spirit or internal voice; as, the demon of Socrates. [Often written {d[ae]mon}.] Walt Bunch believes the term comes from the demons in Oliver Selfridge's paper "Pandemonium", MIT 1958, which was named after the capital of Hell in Milton's "Paradise Lost". Selfridge likened neural cells firing in response to input patterns to the chaos of millions of demons shrieking in Pandemonium. "I think we're in deep trouble the demons are coming out in the first period with a split T defense!" "That's OK "The forces of Righteousness" have a I-Formation offence which should annihilate them to hell!"
