Is anyone else on Kos following the fires that are burning in half the country and that have killed 63 people so far? Reports are that several of them were started by developers who want to clear land one way or the other in order to build. I don't think they meant to clear the land around Olympia, but who knows.
Anyway, I haven't seen anything, and wanted to put it on our radar. Greece is an important ally, and we need to do more to help. Donations to the International Red Cross of money and material goods to help those who have lost their homes (a lot of people have), or whatever.
One of the fires is in the outskirts of Athens, the birthplace of Democracy.
