Hi, Ian and Mark!!


My $.02 worth, if I may:

I have NO concrete reason at all for what I think, except a 'gut feeling' that I ALWAYS had
about the Greeks and Atlantis: - this is probably the ONLY fact that was 'made up' in the
Atlantis tale.  Either by the priest to flatter Solon, or by Solon to make Greece important
in this narrative. 

I lean to Solon being the one to insert his country in the story.  Were not Greece important,
this 'tale' may have been lost with the passage of time......also, were the Greeks not involved,
it may not even have earned a 'listen'.  After all, isn't the word HUBRIS Greek?
