TStael: Cassandra, might it have been, should you have gone for a female alias? Bit more tragic, though, as might be fitting with the world...
Theoclymenus: Actually that might have been an even more appropriate name, the only problem being that I'm not a woman (last time I looked anyway) ! Nobody ever takes any notice of true prophets in their own times anyway, so anyone who actually knows anything in these oh-so-clever (but not very wise) "scientific" days is bound to suffer in the same way as both Cassandra and Theoclymenus did : that's no great surprise ! Everything is, apparently, explicable in "scientific" terms - even the creation of the universe itself and it's ultimate demise. God, everyone is all of a sudden just so clever, so wise and so knowing about everything ! The internet isn't full of utter dickheads after all, then, it's full of geniuses !
After a little research I found 6 prophets (or clairvoyants) mentionted in The Odyssey. Alithersis, Alkinos, Tilemos, Tiresias, Polifithis and Theoclymenos (Tiresias is the most noted). Cassandra is not in The Odyssey, she is in The Illiad, which is a different epic.
So, if you wanted a name from The Odyssey, you chose well. (I really like greek mythology!!)
As for the rest, I kind of agree with you. People can't tell the difference between information and knowledge.....
