In item 2, Andrew Hunwick asks, among other things, about
"OCCOLAMPADE" and "ZUINGLE," whom his author calls
pseudo-Messiahs after the time of Jesus. The likeliest
candidates would be Johannes Oecolampadius (1482-1531) and
Huldreich Zwingli (1484-1531), both of whom were reformers who
differed with Luther on the interpretation of the Lord's Supper.
I hope this helps.

Subject: Enjoying God eternally
A classic Jewish source for this concept is in the Babylonian Talmud, tractate
berakhoth 17a. The request was for Christian sources, but this is clearly
very similar:
Rav was accustomed to say: "The future world is not like this world. In the
future world there is no eating and drinking, no procreation, no business
dealings, no jealousy, no hatred and no competition. But the righteous sit,
with their crowns on their heads, and enjoy the splendor of the divine
presence, as it is said: And they saw God, and they ate and drank (Exodus
24.10)."

Subject: Voyager Co. address
a couple of people asked me for the address of the Voyager company in
response to my earlier posting on the "Poetry in Motion" CD. It is:
Voyager Company
1351 Pacific Coast Highway
Santa Monica, CA 90401 USA
(310) 451-1383
They will send you a catalog on request, and you can order direct. Many of
their products are available from third parties at slight discounts,
although I've also had problems with back orders when going that route.
