    I would appreciate any of you who are digging about in Jung's work to keep an eye out for the "Chinese curse," "May you live in interesting times."

    Some years ago Dr. DeLong's did some interesting detective work trying to locate the origin of this saying. DeLong got a pointer from Mauricio Díaz of Colombia that Jung had been the origin. In spite of considerable effort on his part, DeLong could not verify it. (Near the bottome of http://hawk.fab2.albany.edu/sidebar/sidebar.htm)

    BTW, I signed up on Lloyd deMause's list for a short time.

    Sheesh.
