The translator has quite sensibly left out the bits where Markos was demonstrating the dromoi, but says the recordings could perhaps be put online. I've tried to contact her to ask for that to be done. I'd encourage others to do the same!

Cheers, Chris

Now you can get the missing interview parts under the menu point Addenda (translated text)
