The "Gate 7" tragedy in Greece.

I'd never even heard of it until this morning. Must have been horrific.

Did it make much news over here at the time, as I have no recollection of it at all?

I too missed that.
All caused by someone stumbling on steps...could have happened to any one of us, particularly in that era.

With todays immediate media / news coverage i doubt it would be possible to miss /forget now

Without belittling the Greek disaster.
