My parents are living on Mesogeion, one of the largest streets in Athens, within a 5-10 minute walk to the Pentagon. My uncle is a former fighter pilot, still works for the military training other pilots right outside Athens. Another uncle used to work in shipping, and lives at Pireas, the country's main seaport. My aunt works for an airline at Eleftherios Venizelos, the main commercial airport in Athens. One of my closest friends over there is a lawyer, and her office is right off Syntagma Square. She walked through the "riots" to get to work. My godmother is a translator for one of the government ministries, and she works near Syntagma Square, too.
If anything actually does get bad over there, I won't need a 6 month old newspaper to find out about it. I won't need you or the folks at Stormfront to clue me in, either.
I'm pretty comfortable with my grasp of the current political climate and economic situation, thanks. As far as any non-resident can feel confident they have a finger on the pulse of what's happening in Greece, I think I'm pretty on top of it.
