I'm not sure this qualifies as interesting, but here is what's circulating in the news. It sounds like a lot of confusing indecisiveness to me.

One evangelist on the island came over and said that in his church he got over a third (or was it half?) more people coming back to his church after a first visit when they switched to using expensive filter coffee rather than cheap instant...

His argument was that most people have good filter coffee in their home. Surely the house of God should serve the same quality for their guests. :)

Actually Tim, I've just been thinking of you- I'm listening to traditional Greek music right now. :)

Heheheh. I don't like that stuff much. Mostly because out here they play it on instruments that are in very approximate tuning. Thus some notes are about a semitone apart when they should be playing the same thing... *shudders*
