Just saw a post from Anna. Since she's got spotty net access, I thought I'd take the liberty of sharing the news here.

For those of you who haven't heard, there are wildfires raging across Greece .

Anna, as I said, is okay, and well away from the endangered areas.

At least 57 deaths have been confirmed, according to the AP. Homes and land have also been destroyed, and several key ancient sites are in the path of the oncoming flames.

Here's hoping the fires can be stopped or at least contained soon, before any more lives are lost.


When in doubt, think about penguins. It probably won't help, but at least it'll be fun.
