WOW Tori! I am incredibly impressed with this insight - and am saving 
the post to re-read. It may well be worth reading the whole book (like 
I'm doing this summer with Watership Down in preparation for LOST's 
return on ABC this fall).  That is too much detail to be considered a 
coincidence. Is there anything more offhand that you can relate to 
Machiavelli's work?
