If you really are pro Greek, you should be aware that the news media often does a REALLY REALLY REALLY BAD job with Greek terms and to reproduce their headlines whole is foolhardy.

This is quite a Zippy thread.

I know and understand that all too well 33girl. And that observation goes to just about every report on every type of event by any type of media. Part of the reason I read a great deal from many sources.

In this case, usage of terms is a bit problematic. As are the facts of the matter.
