Hint: 'The Thai Cobra' is a reference to both a 15th century ASTRONOMER and a certain fx pedal...[/img]

I'm trying to find my copy of 1421, but it is eluding me.
I'm gonna guess that this is a reference to the chinese zodiac, but I'm unfamiliar with the chinese astrologers/astronomers.
All I can recall of the sign of the snake is that they are often quite beautiful, vain, & hot-headed. (And even that prolly came from some placemat at a restaurant!)
Your hints aren't enough, I fear. PRI escapes me. INT = intensity?
It's a mystery to me, mike...
Wait! Is that PRE? If so, it's "presense," most likely. Again, I'm missing the snake connsction...
Eh...I dunno...
