  • Olcott should write a Book

    From Mild Shock@21:1/5 to All on Fri Jul 26 16:39:29 2024
    Fabulistic is in his name, there were
    some interesting Olcotts:

    Henry Steel Olcott
    Buddhistischer Katechismus https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddhistischer_Katechismus_(Olcott)

    William Tyler Olcott
    Star Lore of all Ages https://www.buecher.de/artikel/buch/star-lore-of-all-ages-a-collection-of-myths-legends-and-facts-concerning-the-constellations-of-the-northern-hemisphere/66741393/

    The title of the book could be:

    Turing, Montague, Mozart
    an Eternal Computer tape

    Some months ago I found a book, with a southern
    hemisphere map of stars, also written by some Olcott.
    Who was it? Are these star gazers also related to you?

    Thats the other book, very nice one:

    Title: A Field Book of the Stars
    Author: William Tyler Olcott https://www.gutenberg.org/files/20769/20769-h/20769-h.htm

    Oh its not southern hemisphere, it says:

    The constellations embraced in this manual are only
    those visible from the average latitude of the New
    England and Middle States, and owe their place in
    the particular season in which they are found to the
    fact that in that season they are favorably
    situated for observation.

    Henry Steele Olcott was born in the same town
    as myself and my Dad. he was born 100 years
    before my Dad. He was my great grandfather's
    oldest brother.

    Colonel Olcott was in charge of the investigation
    of Lincoln's assassination is still celebrated in
    Sri Lanka every year for restoring Buddhism.

    Here is another book that he wrote. https://www.amazon.com/Descendants-Thomas-Olcott-Settlers-Connecticut/dp/3337747264


    I wrote no books, yet, here are my many papers including
    two published patents that I wrote myself. https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Pl-Olcott/research

    Question is basically, are they linked?

    Henry Steel Olcott (1832 - 1907) https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Steel_Olcott

    William Tyler Olcott (1873 - 1936) https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Tyler_Olcott

    Strange this William Tyler Olcott was born
    in Chicage but move to Connecticut, to
    the Thomas Olcott (c. 1609 - 1654) settlers?
