Synopsis | According to Greek mythology, Odysseus visited Aeolia, seeking out Aeolus to provide favorable winds for his ship. His wish was granted, but Aeolus also gave Odysseus a sealed bag of unfavorable winds and was told not to open it....but he did, and the winds blew his ship back to Aeolia. Aeolus was furious and demanded that Odysseus tracked down and capture the bad winds or reap the consequences...but he never did. Bad winds one day hit a red school house in Windy Gap and a student, Bob Sanders, was taken up in it and given strange powers, which he used as The Twister. |
