Δαφνη Ευτυχια Αρθουρος

1: Earlier, after Googling the name of a person whose email address (from which he emailed me a day or two ago) seems to no longer exist, I decided to vanity-Google myself. Resulting impressions: Gee, a few more mailing lists now have web-accessible archives dating back to when I posted on them; and, Wow, there suddenly seems to be a lot of interest in ouds now, and a bunch of links to my web page about the oud for guitarists. Not as many as there are links to or (mostly unauthorized) copies of "The Chastity Belt", but way more than I expected. No wonder I've been getting email from beginning oudists in the past few months.

2: A bit more randomly, I encounted the truly awful, evil pun that marnanel made about Tim Berners-Lee.
