Now I think Poe would really appreciate this one, Jerry.

I wonder how he came to use a raven in his writing.

Who knows, JL, except for centuries the raven has had a bad reputation for doom and gloom. Thanks for chiming here here.

Haha! Great idea, jwesley, and you are correct, the raven and/or blackbird, both are intelligent devils.
