Dear Harley:

I may not have been clear in my original question. The
girl, who wrote KAI KALO PASCA to my friend, lives in
Greece now. She was not referring to Ancient Greek.
The Modern Greek word for Easter is indeed
PASCA...I've confirmed that much with her. However,
she had no idea why they use PASCA, just like many of
us don't know the sure-enough history of the word "Easter."
