I've heard of those- though I give as much credence to the tale of
Icarus as I do most other Greek tales. I even hear tell that some of
them believed the earth is not the center of the heavenly bodies!
Imagine that!

No, I mean more like Stefan thinking he will fly like a bird to the East
for 12th Night. We all know it is truly many days' travel from Ansteorra
to the East. Stefan should have been on horse long ago! Now Master A,
are you certain that a man with delusions of that nature should be
allowed in your kitchen? ;-D)
