A Note to Fellow Loyal Citizens
I think what you're looking for is this:
μωλων λαβε
UPDATE: Maybe it's
μολων λαβε
I don't know which spelling of "molon" is right, since I don't have a Greek-English dictionary handy....

Huh. First time ever any Greek made any sense to me. I studied German then Hebrew. All different. Teehee.

Yes, it gets to be confusing after a while. What happened to me is that each language I studied blew away all the previous... or I'd start a sentence in French and end it in Korean. Bah.
Now that I'm out of the language business (and have been for over 10 years) the expression "use it or lose it" really makes sense.

Same here, Russ.
To think that I used to be fluent in Russian... *sigh*... :(

the latter is right,
though no accent mark.
