   Wade,   
      
   Many thanks for the informative posting. It fills in a few gaps and   
   inspires some new lines of thought for me. I'd not heard the bit about   
   the cross as I had always thought it was a rod instead. I'll have to   
   pick up copies of the works you've cited (that I don't already have).   
      
   There was such a thing as lawful satire. Harsh penalties were enacted on   
   those who did not justify their actions.The satire you've described   
   sounds exactly like a Glam Dicinn which is described in Cormac's   
   Glossary I believe. As such, it had the power of life and death to those   
   that truth identified. One wonders how this life and death was meted   
   out.
