This is off topic, but I was thinking today...if we're using the Greek alphabet, why do we put things in English alphabetical order?
If the letters are spelled out in English, English alphabetical order is often used, because that's how computer data bases do it. I don't know if there are any real rules, though. TinyDancer might know. She's got a Phd in library science, so she should know how to organize information. I just know how to disorganize it.
