Mq, " "The "Sword of Damocles" [I don't know the literary allusion," "

Mythology is not my forte but it was this guy Damocles sitting at a great dinner party who happened to look up and noticed a hanging sword, installed by a tyrant (ahem!) called Dionysis, in a way (hung by only a single horsehair) so that it could fall down and hurt/kill him (and the rest of the GSM industry) at any time.

I'm always happy to help with answers to your questions
