>The oracles at Denver spoke on behalf of the SAA, advising rulers, citizens
>and philosophers on everything from their sex lives to affairs of state.
>The night before prophetic sessions, the oracles drank fermented grain
>drinks; in the morning, they ingested rosted bean drinks after uttering
>incantations (mocha valencia, venti) and making valuable offerings. They
>then descended into a basement cell, breathe in sacred fumes of photocopies
>and slide projectors. The divine communications were interpreted and written
>down, mostly by male priests, often in ambiguous verse.
