Talk:Enoch Root

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] elixir vitae

This article states that Enoch uses the elixir to "to resurrect himself after he dies." Based on Daniel's application of the elixir to Newton in The System of the World, the process of combining the elements and consuming them seems to be fairly difficult for a corpse. If there is something I missed, please enlighten me; otherwise, this information is incorrect and should be changed. --Ckostovny 20:00, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Elihu Root

I wonder if there's also a reference to American politician/diplomat Elihu Root. The "wise man" image, involvement in major geopolitical events (WWI, the League of Nations), interest in mathematics, comments about the value of gold, etc. all fit pretty well. -- Jake 07:37, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] What does Enoch Root look like?

I just realized that I think he looks a lot like Gordon Freeman. Other thoughts? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.20.237.230 (talk) 19:13, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
