Ok, so that's what has got you guys worked up. I didn't spend enough time
at the site to notice any of that. Again, Oun Kwon has nothing to do with
the site -- he is just a poor innocent name dragged into all this (sorry,
Oun Kwon, mea culpa). Most websites have someplace that you can click and
send comments to the webmaster -- perhaps that would be the way to go here.
Now, can we get back to Greek, what?
