Re: Thumbs Up to all you Modders..
Because Echo was the name of the nymph that (IIRC) Hera punished, by allowing her to only repeat what others say. Hera was a rather nasty ***** of a goddess, with a big jealousy trip. I think Echo was one of Zeus' many "conquests", and since Hera can't really get back at hubie directly, she takes her wrath out on the mistresses, their children, and humanity in general.
Echo also had a big crush on Narcissus, who ended up seeing his reflection in a pool of water, fell in love with his own image, and ended up starving to death. Which is why we call people who spend way too much time in front of the mirror "narcissists".
