Second from the left, standing, in this pic (http://www.fluxfactory.org/images/group1.jpg) looks suspiciously like my old friend Brian. Bizarre.

How is that boy doing? Yes, I know Sxip. I was going to mention him, too. I saw Bindlestiff last year at MadLab in Columbus and noticed he wasn't with the troupe.

I'll have to tell you some stories from Athens :).
