While Vlabatsky is clearly a Spoonerism of Blavatsky, it is also
worth
nothing that 'Cassandra' has a significance too. In fact, she was
daughter of Priam of Troy, and received the gift of prophecy from
Apollo, who loved her; but because she would not obey him he cursed
her that no one would believe her prophecies. She survived the fall
of Troy and was taken home a captive by Agammemnon - she warned him
of trouble but he didn't believe her and both were slain by
Clytemnestra.
