>"The Most memorable response came from when we asked for a word in Latin that would confirm that we were actually in contact with Dr. John Dee. Latin was used as the universal language of scholarship in the sixteenth century, and we reasoned that Dr. Dee would be able to give us word in the Latin Language that we could translate using an online translator, since our knowledge of Latin is limited.
>The response of the spirit was immediate, buit at first extremely puzzling. He moved the pointer to the letters I and V. This made no sense to either of us at the time. After receiving the response, we closed the seession. We had achieved our main objective — establishing communication with Dr. Dee. We were disappointed that our request for some kind of Latin verification word had failed, but overall the effort was successful for a first attempt.
>When Dr. Dee indicated the sessionw as over by selecting 'goodbye', we asked if he would allow us to contact him again. He indicated that he would. We thanked him with a brief blessing and closed the session.
>It was about two hours later when Donalad finalyl realized what Dr. Dee meant by the letters I andV. The letters IV were the Roman numeral for the number 4, and the fourth letter of the Latin alphabet was D, which is the initial letter of John Dee's last name. Dee's name and the letter D sound the same. This caused Dee to sign his name in personal letters and his private diary entries with a triangle.
>Why a triangle? Because the the fourth letter of the Greek alphabet was
DELTA
>Which is the Greek equivalent to the Latin letter D, and the Greek delta is shaped like a triangle. It was a kind of pun on the sound of his last name that Dee had used throughout his life when signing letters — a trianglle to represent the Greek letter detla, and the Greek detla to represent the Latin letter D."
