I apologize if a thread has been started on this, but I couldn't find one. Does anyone think there is a reason they titled this song "Rosetta Stoned?" Rosetta Stone is the company that makes those Books/Audio that teaches you how to speak different laguages. Do you think that has any meaning or just a coincidence? I'm curious, as usual with Tool.

Here is a link to amazon in case you didn't believe me, lol.

Oh, hmm I'm embarassed to admit that I didn't google Rosetta Stone so I had no idea it was anything more than those books. Now I see it's a Stone with scripting in 3 languages. I guess I should read more before posting. Damn I'm lazy. lol
