think she coined the expression.
I'm trying to trace that expression fitting so perfectly the Web. I don't
know if Robert BOYLE (1627-1691) originated it, or was it ASHMOLE who in
1645 established a rosicrucian 'invisible college', as Umberto ECO reports
in * Le pendule de Foucault*.
Thank you for your lights.
