I may be among the missing for all or some of the next 2.5 weeks, as Donna and I are heading for a well-earned (I think so, anyway) vacation trip visiting several of the Greek islands as well as a few days in Athens. As we are both big fans of old Greek and Roman stuff, and enjoy tramping around in places we've never been before, it should be a hoot. Plus, the fried octopus and spanokopita should be great. If I find an internet cafe in my travels, I will try to check in and make sure no one is sullying my name in my absence.
