Chaos symbolised the universe as a big gaping mess. This gave birth to Gaia (Earth) and Uranus (the sky with stars encrusted in its belly) and the Cosmos was created...or something like that (sorry for being boring but while the subject was up I thought someone might be interested).

Doesn't it mean 'about oneself'?? Like Autobiography, and Autoimmune? And perhaps Automobile means mobile by itself? Such as with Autograph? Then Automaton? Maton? Autoerotic makes me wonder where masturbate comes from *snicker*.. why not Master-bate? why Mastur? Why not Miss, or Lady? Missbate, or Ladybate? See, etiquette is a weird thing: Men under 10yrs: Master Men between 10-18: No Prefix Men over 18: Mr. (as in addressing a letter, or invitation) But I also read that it's acceptable etiquette to SPIT in public as long as it lands on Grass. That can't be possible!! What about the prefix “Auto”? Doesn’t it mean ‘about oneself’?? Like Autobiography, and Autoimmune?
