Damn it boss, I like you too much not to say it. You've got everything except one thing: madness! A man needs a little madness, or else...

@msolga,
Thanks for that Chuck, there is a joie de vie in Crete, which I've not seen in such abundance elsewhere, and that sums it up.

“In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken,' and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time something like that happened in politics or religion.”
― Carl Sagan
