Devil's Tower

Interesting legends about Devil's Tower, WY.  Many involve a bear attempting to capture children.  One includes a great eagle rescuing the children from the pinnacle (sound familiar, Tolkien fans?)

[On a totally unrelated note: I was amused recently to learn that the phrase In vino veritas is attributed to Pliny the Elder (evidently lifted off a Greek phrase attributed to Alcaeus).  I love that guy.]
