Blurry

Post by Keesa »

Umm, either because of a blurry screen or a blurry page, or perhaps both, I can't see what the Greek for "son" is supposed to be...is it upsilon, iota, omicron, stigma, or is it omega, omicron, stigma? I'm guessing the first one just because it makes more sense...

Oops! Sorry! My mistake. Eventually I'll get all these crazy, crazy Greek letters sorted out...working in a different alphabet is quite a challenge!

Well, the greek letters are cute, aren't they? Tho' Latin characters are more elegant. ;)
