in fact the problem seem to be that certain messages are not marked as read, as I have seen (and read) my own message and it is sill marked unread. Could it be related to cookies ?

Hello sorry to bother with a technical problem, but when seeing the new posts list, the "go to first unread post" no longer points to my first unread post, instead I'm transported to the first post of the thread. Hopefully this is nothing serious, if it can't be fixed I can deal with it (c...

Book 2: p. 142 The author rambles about himself, possibly connected to the year 1635 (?). He also seem to love Tarots and Chess, but not the "stupid games". http://books.google.com/books?id=35oPAAAAQAAJ&q=tarots#v=onepage&q=tarots&f=false What is peculiar is that he mentions o...

Thanks a lot - so I was wrong and misunderstood Tease reviews (and misjudged his work, shame on me) Thanks to your replies I looked again and found the following at letarot.it, but my italian is much too rough to get exactly what it is about and where the informations come from. Allo stesso supplizi...

Hello this detail must have been discussed elsewhere but I only found scarce references on various boards and mailing list archives (I saw one allusion by SteveM on aeclectic and nothing here or on TarotL archives - maybe my search was too scarce too ?) On page 75 of french translation of Kaplan's f...
