You will also note the date on Costas' post.  It is dated 4/2/98, 25
minutes past the noon hour.  Either they do not do April fool's day in
Greece, or he is travelling in the Salomon islands this week.

Kind regards,

As long as we're on the subject, I'll bring up last year's question:

     Are MPE users in danger of becoming a cult?

The answer is still on the web at:

     http://www.aics-research.com/chad/

Just to put all the answers found on this web page in context, it's
important
to remember just a mere short 365 days ago that (i) Hale-Bopp was high in
the
sky, (ii) the Heaven's Gate people had just committed mass suicide, and
(iii)
Bill Gates and Lew Platt had just signed some form of co-operative, mutual
non-aggression pact.
