Re: [Info-gne]Stop nonsens

[Relay Team Silver]

Hey, for the record, Oleg, I'm with you!  It's just that the only language 
other than English I'm anywhere near proficient in is Ancient Greek -- real 
useful there.  Heaven forfend the Attics should miss out on GNE.

I'm also with you in your skepticism -- I've just finished my third article, 
and though I submitted the first two to GNE, I'm simply keeping originals of 
the latest one and its successors, until I see where exactly this whole 
thing is going.  And if the good guys, whoever they be, need my help, I'm 
here.

Peace!
PureDoxyk
