This made front page New York Times today. It's the first Ive seen there all year with a Bucharest byline

There's a peak of interest here lately, partly because of the (apparent) poisoning of that ex KGB guy in London. The above article makes it sound like more will be revealed in Romania..or then again, maybe not, at least until the old guys all die off.

cheers, anyway. fb2k
