 Tannin@Everything2.com
The word tannin is an adapatation of "tanning", the process of converting animal hides into leather by steeping them in a solution made from the bark of plants such as the oak.
Tannins are generally located on or near the exterior surfaces of plants, such as bark, leaf, stem, bud, and root tissues, though they may also occur in the seeds.
It is thought that tannins function as a mode of defense for plants against herbivores--thanks to their chemical structure, tannins present a bitter or astringent taste when consumed due to their interaction with salivary glycoproteins.

 Demonology, Tha science of demon existence
Although there are marked differences between the demons of the Avesta and the devil in Scripture and Christian theology (for Christian doctrine is free from the dualism of the Mazdean system), the essential struggle between good and evil is still the same in both cases.
By way of definition, then, demonic control involves a demon residing in a person and exercising direct control over that person with a certain degree of derangement of the mind and/or physical upset of the body.
These symptoms of demonic control by and of themselves do not prove that demons are residing in a person, because there may be other problems that cause these very same symptoms.

It copied the text at a great speed, for the demon knew it by heart, because demons are as familiar with the Laws as are the angels.
& the demon, in a frenzy to complete the task before being forced to return to Gehenna at dawn, hastened to the bed of the scribe & began to strip the skin off the man's back, despite his howls of pain, then continued to scribble away on it until the task was done.
