Elias Demetracopoulos RIIP (Part 2): See Sea Sling

The Deaths in 2016 site lists under February 17:

• Elias P. Demetracopoulos, 88, Greek journalist and activist, involved in the Watergate Scandal.

There are several things that are trade mark signatures: his twin age, 88; Watergate being a "political" scandal involving US President Nixon... and we've been on a bit of a "President" pattern-cluster theme, albeit the last one involves a Presidents dog.

• Elias P. Demetracopoulos (1 December 1928 –  17 February 2016)

Note the following excerpt from the Watergate wiki page:

• The affair began with the arrest of five men for breaking and entering into the DNC headquarters at the Watergate complex on Saturday, June 17, 1972. 

The prominent date of  June 17 stands out given the following excerpt from my previous post:

Benjamin Robert "Ben" Rich (June 18, 1925 – January 5, 1995) 

June 18, 19 and 20 factors in my recent February 11 post, Ray Colcord RIIP (Part 7 ): Avro Arrow, Not A-E-R-O, note this lengthy (butt definitely worth it) excerpt:

• Samson Raphael Hirsch (June 20, 1808 – December 31, 1888) 
• Elliot Lee Richardson (July 20, 1920 – December 31, 1999)
• Alan MacGregor Cranston (June 19, 1914 – December 31, 2000)

So the last name stands out due to his "MacGregor" middle name.   This is an important name to the inner twin world given that 3 members of the "Starr Family Production" are the MacGregor Family (Rob, Trish and daughter Megan) who live in Florida.  The MacGregor's are peppered throughout my 2 blogs, even the very first post involves the trio.  I have no inkling... at least not yet, as to why the "inner twin Production team" are bringing this name to the forefront, butt you can be sure that they have their reasons... and intend to spell it out.   I will say this, the cryptic phrase in the surname is : Mac Great Gore!!  So 'wright' off the bat, I'd say it's not going to be good, butt still we need to keep our chin up... heads out of the sand,  because if we don't we're apt to to get the Royal "boot"!!

From the group of three in the above list, we have two emerging clusters: "June 20, July 20, __/20th Day of Month  Sequence", and a "June __, 19, 20/ Date Sequence" pattern-cluster.  Since the first gap re August 20 is my  father's birthday that cluster is bridged, so for the second, bridging the gap is easy as there was only one on the June 18 wiki page: 

• 2000 – Nancy Marchand, American actress (b. 1928)

• Nancy Marchand (June 19, 1928 – June 18, 2000) 

It's 'audd' (butt very much in keeping with the inner twin way) that in the process of investigating the only June 18th available (via the usual investigative formula)that a June 19 crops up seemingly "out of the blue" (to those who aren't aware), and so we now have a "June 17, 18, 19(x2), 20/ Date Sequence" in the works.   The post goes on to investigate the cryptic phrase in the name Nancy Marchand re: "nan cy march and..." that with further investigation turns out to be more like "south see/sea war and..." (given that "nan" is Chinese word meaning "south" and march is named after Mars the god of war).  It occurred to me just now that the MacGregor's live in Florida, which is "south" (from where I live), and the MacGregor's and I are at "audd's" with one another... a bit of a "war" you might say... and with my name being "Ocean" one can see how "sea" factors in.  So there's a bit of a metaphor, butt knowing how the twin like to mix metaphor and reality together my sense is that a much bigger war is raging in sea's/ocean's to the south.

Coming back now to Demetracopoulos, note from his wiki page:

• friend of Louise Gore and Senators Frank E. Moss, Quentin N. Burdick and Mike Gravel. 

The  surname "Gore" stands out  given the above excerpt regarding the surname MacGregor : cryptic phrase in the surname is : Mac Great Gore!!  As well, note the following excerpts from two recent posts, one made on February 16, Antonin Scalia RIIP: Judges, Presidents and Dogs, and the other on February 12, Kevin Randleman RIIP(Part 2) : 

• Antonin Gregory Scalia (March 11, 1936 – February 12/13, 2016) ...  an addition to the "Gregory/MacGregor/ Great Gore" pattern-cluster.   
• McGregor was expected to face Andy Ogle on 17 August 2013 

 The date of August 17 in last excerpt immediately above,  along with June 17(Watergate Burglary), generates a "June 17, ___, August 17/ 17th Day of Month Sequence" pattern-cluster, and so the gap needing to be bridged is  "July 17".  Since "Andy Ogle" is an "audd"  name, we should investigate:

Andrew Richard Ogle (born 16 February 1989) 

His birthday was yesterday... today being February 17 and the date of Demetrapoulos' death!!   So we now have a "February __, 16, 17/Date Sequence" pattern-cluster, with February 15 required to bridge the gap.  This cluster gets handled differently given that it's just two days earlier, which means that it serves to prompt us back to the Deaths in 2016 site and to someone we can expect to find there... one who "fitz".... so how about: 

• George Gaynes, 98, Finnish-born American actor (Police Academy, Punky Brewster, Tootsie).

Well the surname speaks loud and clear... in a cryptic manner that is: Gaynes being a cryptic "gains"... and/or "gayness".  Note from his wiki page:

• George Gaynes (born George Jongejans; May 16, 1917 – February 15, 2016) 

His date of birth definitely stands out... and jives given that May 16th is Rob MacGregor's birthday!! It's also a date that cropped up recently, note from my February 15 post, Hugo Olivares RIIP (Part 2): Koko Lolo:

Harold "Hal" Seeger (May 16, 1917 – March 13, 2005) 

Again, the cryptic phrase in his name jives: har old see ger.  And with a little tweaking and investigating the etymology of "har" and "ger": 

• harry (v.) hergian "make war"; Proto-Germanic *harjaz  "armed force" 
• gore (n.2) ... German gehre"a gore"... (see gar) :...Ger "spear"...

So we then get "make war old see gore".  Of course keep in mind that another design influence of the inner twin was to make "see" phonetically identical to "sea" and the letter "c".

And speaking of the sea... that I can now see now that the fog has lifted

A bit of research:

see (v.) ... seon "to see, look, behold; observe, perceive, understand; experience, visit, inspect"...from PIE root *sekw- (2) "to see," which is probably identical with *sekw- (1) "to follow" (see sequel)

sea (n.)  sæ "sheet of water, sea, lake, pool," from Proto-Germanic *saiwaz(cognates: Old Saxon seo, Old Frisian se, Middle Dutch see, Swedish sjö)

Letter C: The sign is possibly adapted from an Egyptian hieroglyph for a staff sling

And one last thing: don't worry about what damage I can do by "slinging" this out there, worry about what the sea can sling!!
