well, jay whitlow has heard from eric y that life in greece is pretty amazing anyway, that is greece isn't it? even if one has nothing to hide it's not a pleasant thought to know we are being watched so closely. whitlow reports that the right to privacy has come from a supreme court decision rather than the original constitution and jay is wondering if the court will address this at some point.
