A lack of respect for our judiciary
The crisis over the two quarries in Markopoulo, which was shaken by explosions after quarriers continued to operate despite a court ruling ordering them to stop, and the buck-passing going on between regional and local authorities reluctant to take on the responsibility are reminiscent of a deplorable incident in Halkida where a falling road sign killed a passenger in a passing car.
All the competent authorities claim to have been unqualified to try to avoid this predictable disaster. |

Three powerful little words
Moments are important, not time. A moment is inspiration, time is thought. And inspiration was never a friend of contemplation. A moment is what leaves a mark. Time opens wounds. A spark, a flash is what you remember. And it was a moment that captured in just three words tragedy, hope, expectation, belief, threat, reminder and conviction: «I won't forget.» Just three little words. |
