Dear Katelis,

Thanks for the notes. Here is another picture for you...

Several years ago I briefly visited an obscure abandoned and ruined village called Kolokasia in Crete, merely because it is named after the plant I study. It was a beautiful place in the late-afternoon sun, with olives still being maintained by some former residents, but sad also because the crypt had collapsed and we could see forgotten ancestors lying in dirt and debris in the dark. We drove on through rocky hills of scented herbs, with goats munching happily and releasing clouds of perfume into the air. Plants thrive on ruins, and I am a happy botanist trying to bring archaeology to life. Or perhaps I am just a goat, but nevertheless happy.

Dear Katelis,

Unfortunately I cannot read Greek, but your blogsite looks very interesting.

Just now I was wondering how the world around North Korea can respond to the irrationality of a state based on idolatry. I imagine that there is already an answer in Greek philospohy.

And just now I caught the Bach's Prelude broadcasting from your site - the music my mother played on a cello when I was in her womb! Being a scientist does not make me immune to irrationality, and I would not want to be immune.

But I would like to know that North Korea is not going to drop a bomb on Kyoto, where I live.
