  11. from this to this: "... In May of 1970, the Secretary-General of the Ministry of Education and Religion, N. Galidakis had also applied for the position without first resigning from his Ministry position!(!) The Professors object(!) for this morally(!) unacceptable(!) situation. At his election he gets 15/33 votes(?!), whereas 17(!?) are required(!). The Minister illegally(!?) assigns him Professor!(!). As soon as the Second Dictatorship took hold (Ioannides), he became invisible[13](!). Promptly[13]... He was always(!?) facing the contempt of his peers(?!) not as a scientist, but as, a spititual(?!) man..."- (translation and parethethetical remarks by this author) --- "Η ΕΞΕΓΕΡΣΗ ΤΟΥ ΠΟΛΥΤΕΧΝΕΙΟΥ", Κωνοφάγου Κωνσταντίνου, Τ. ΠΡΥΤΑΝΕΩΣ[12] Ε.Μ.Π. [Author's note: The lies in this book paragraph are so insanely convoluted and twisted, I could not even make sense of it syntactically, before swallowing 2x300 mg Seroquel to prevent nauseated projectile vomiting[114]. Thank GOD this person is dead today. Otherwise, this author would be inclined to act in highly suspicious ways against him, after reading his book on 23/3/2021. Here's the author of this book, after the fall of the Ioannides regime, enjoying the fruits of his multiple antagonistic betrayal schemes against my Father as "Minister of Industry" (He finally made it: To a position even more important that "(x-)rector" of NTUA(!)):

    Konofagos Minister of Industry
    Konofagos, as "Minister of Industry", under the auspices of Karmanlis Sr. [17] during the signing of the new Greece's Constitution.
    Some other funny "coincidences" from his Wikipedia biography page, above (translation by this author): "In 1969, he was appointed full professor of Metallurgy at NTUA and in 1970, he was elected alternate senator in the same institution..." So he already was a rector at my Father's 1970 full-professorship appointment... Talk about "fair" competition[32] in Engineering... Otherwise, from the same Wikipedia page we read: "...These events (NTUA revolt, etc.) he "historically" and humbly(!) demonstrated in a book of his, without (quotes, emphasis, and italics mine), in the subsequent period, seeking advantages from this stance of his, for personal and political gain..". The photo above is of course virtual proof of his "humility" after accepting the very "humble" position of Ministry of Industry and this book - where he spread his unspeakable lies about N. Galidakis, he made tons of money from, additional proof that he had no financial/personal interest in mind...].
  12. The "rectors" of NTUA: Knowledgable, useful and always non-lying members of non-freemason[NTUA] organizations[11], [25] and serious educational communities, always looking for the students' best interests... See [108].
  13. [Author: Just about the only true statement in this paragraph. Yes, he did try to become "invisible" and tried to hide home at the family residence at Parthenonos 33, after Ioannides' and "name"'s agents started hunting him down. During the Polytechnic uprising, friend Panagiotis Prokopiou called a cab to secure Father away from an angry mob of Ioannides agents/communist mob - Panagiotis ref: dad: "σκατόπαιδα...", meaning "scoundrels: stupid/bad mannered and foul-mouthed kids...". He became so "invisible" in fact, he was forced to flee the country and go to Switzerland, after he had nowhere to go, and after mother bad-mouthed him as: "...go out there (meaning Polytechnic school/Ministry) and figure things out like a man(!)[14], instead of sitting in here in your underwear, like a lazy chicken-coward(!)..." Or, when mother saw this author's Father answer a call (for help maybe?) from Proxima Centauri at Parthenonos 33 in 1973 and told him "Get the f*ck out of MY(!?[45], [46]) house...", with Father in his underwear outside the apartment door, begging her to open the door so he could get back in to hide from the Centaurians...[53] Until one day later upon his return in 1976, when all hell broke loose and Father got out, knowing that he was being watched by "name"'s agents AND "name" herself, got out of the car, located her and broke her face on the street[15]. His words after the event, returning home at Parthenonos: "This stench is following me everywhere I go...!"[39] Otherwise and according to some other anarcho-communist news, "...he (after 23/10/1973 and among others who were not persecuted after the Ioannides take-over), continued his little life(?!) and little job[sic](?!), as if nothing has happened..."- (author's translation of relevant sentence at the end of page 15 of aforementioned link ref., recounting the events at that time). Note convenient blank space in column 5 of the appointees' table, to the right of his name, showing that this "newspaper" really knew what it was talking about].
  14. Definition of a "man" according to mother: Someone who goes against an entire regime of secret hunting government agents under guidance from a previous goverment's traitor, looking to arrest you and tries to fight them bare-handed in his underwear. NOT someone with the more regular sexual gifts and/or knowledge. She also loves horsies and mumified bat wings in her money purse for good luck, after deposited money to her name in 1970 by Father dried up[45] and after money for opening a jewelry store in 1978 was depleted[46]([13]).
  15. Sometime later on July 1974 and after the Cyrpus events on this author's trip to Switzerland, he told this author of a certain kind of corrective beauty mask that he needed to create, in apology to her for this slap, because she thought (according to her) she looked too "ugly" and was worried, but I don't think he ever made one, so this author created one for her, here.
  16. From elia archived document #: 6K31.030. Still can't figure out why his dress code is different from all the rest...
  17. The next "great" Ethnic Leader and President of the Greek Republic, after the fall of the Ioannides regime: Konstantinos Karamanlis (a.k.a. another useful incidental marionette politician) who knew full-well throughout his subsequent political career not only the betrayal against my Father's overall significance in Papadopoulos' government by the Ioannides coup in 1973 (as promised by Kissinger in exchange for Makarios' head who was starting to annoy the States with his pro-Russian flirtations and nuances to acquire Nukes for Cyprus[50]) but also the full details of how Ioannides was subsequently betrayed and cheated by Kissinger under pressure to accept a finitary pre-designed/approved partition plan for Cyprus in exchange for non-aggressive military intervention by the US (comment on YouTube). His response to subsequent questions like why Greece didn't intervene against the Turks invading the island, was, "Η Κύπρος κείται μακράν..." (translation by this author: "Cyprus lies too far away...(!)" (assuming a continuation by the author that goes like: "... supposedly for us to do anything useful..")[19]. This man was the founder of one of the major political parties in Greece (ND party), which today (as of 17/4/2021) rules the country through a descendant of another legendary factor who contributed to this party's development. Of course, as usual, nobody from all these major political factors has ever told the truth to the Greek people: neither about the later Cyprus tragedy (Corresponding Cyprus file case, still top-secret and closed-confidential) nor about knowing full-well who my Father (or who I am) was[6.6] or how significant my Father's scientific contributions to the intended Nuclear Power upgrades by Papadopoulos were, that were later drowned by the new Ioannides regime in cavort with the US Kommandantur's National Security Advisors. Otherwise, they've all preferred to enjoy their privileges as Prime ministers and Parliamentarians, enjoying their free time with some of the more knowledgable "benefactors" of the Greek nation, pretending they have no clue about any of that:
    ND party factors and beneficiaries
    Traditional ND party factors, in proud company with some of the more "important" diachronic beneficiaries[18] of Greece, in front(!) of The Parthenon

    ND party factors and beneficiaries
    Embraces and photo mementos[20] between "traditional" ND party families and some of the rightfully honored benefactors of Greece

    Youngest member with Donald Duc^^^C Trump
    The youngest proud member of the tradition of ND, Prime minister of Greece, with Donald Duc^C^^C, err, Trump[21], [22], [89].
  18. Benefactors of such immense caliber to the Greek nation, that after this good and decent man (with an impeccable educational track record among other things, btw) made an honest attempt to run for president in the US, he subsequently required psychological support therapy from the psychological shock he received after the sewer flood of fabricated lies and the overall stench from the mud war that was launched against him during his campaign period, by some of the aforementioned "benefactors". He was probably only too lucky he wasn't assassinated, without too much haste or fuss. On the other hand and for a refreshing change, you may want to try to Google image-search find ONE modern Greek politician in the same photo as Mr. Dukakis. Or how some other associates benefited (from linking up through Skull & Bones - with a proud photo of handshake with B*sh Sr. above his desk in Lake Forrest, IL) with the previous traditional families in the States, like Stuart Stringfellow - who employed mother as a housekeeper[73], instead of a financier: "Why are you studying math?" upon lunch in Lake Forrest Chicago 1985 or thereabouts after seeing this author carrying a red Combinatorics book on hand. This author, plainly: "To get hold of the "buttons" one day...". StU's response: Grind teeth, raise blood pressure, "$%$#&@^"(internally), sneer, etc.
    Strinfellow-Cohen
    Your average American Genius (along with boss), who encouraged Greece into becoming a self-sustaining Nuclear Power all the way from 1984 to 2021.
    Proud father of an adopted son who composes Satanic Rock songs and possible benefactor of my Father on 16/6/1986 in other more "general" ways
    ([73]photo of him in "generous" handshake with B*sh serior, behind his desk in Lake Forrest, IL).
  19. A statement that by itself probably deserves free Mensa membership privileges, if not anything else. Unless, of course, it was intended as a bad joke of sorts to unsuspecting listeners.
  20. Note residual and probably incurable black-eye on Greek "beneficiary" G.W. Bush: Rumor has it that some doctors suggested that it eventually turned into an evil-eye at the time of the photo, others disagreed and admitted that it was perhaps always there, but was made more prominent after his Presidential campaign run against Mr. Dukakis due to a secret "Skull & Bones" sparring test match against Mr. Dukakis based on "Excellence", according to the rules of the aforementioned club.
  21. From better to worse, as always, after 1986, exactly in accordance to Murphy's Laws: Of course only an ineducable, megalomaniac, dyslexic - because of low intelligence, rich, narcissistic, hair bleaching, and orange face-suntanning, wife trophy-parading "VIP" colossal money genius could fix America's problems (MAGA) through his "Excellence". Note friendly facial gesture characteristics of sympathy and support. Thank God he didn't get elected a second time, because otherwise, Greece would be in deep trouble with his commerce and chess buddies, the Turks. God finally showed some solid signs of mercy to the Greeks.
  22. Guess good and faithful tradition never dies ("Και ξανά προς την δόξα τραβά..."). As they say in colloquial Greek: "Όπου φυσάει ο άνεμος" (translation: "Wherever the wind blows.."), to avoid undesired consequences... Otherwise, a highly intelligent and astute ND "traditional" politician, an actual Harvard graduate, with virtually 0 working experience, except only as a bank employee for a couple of years. A fairly faithful barometer of the political intelligence of post-1974 Greeks.
  23. Didaskalikon Vima: Official newspaper carrier of the Greek Teaching Association, 5/12/1967.

  25. This Greek reporter on page 462 of his book "Η ΜΑΣΟΝΙΑ ΣΤΗΝ ΕΛΛΑΔΑ" (book references), tenth edition, lists my Father's name as a registered Lodge member for the period 1966-1978, along with various other member names for some of the more prominent members of the Papadopoulos government. This isn't quite accurate timewise. I have no personal references for his membership by him except only for three anecdotal instances:
    1. Grandmother's reference for his father's intentions when this author's Father was a teenager: "Κάποια μέρα θα γίνεις Αετιδεύς" ("Aetideus": a younger member initiate Masonic degree).
    2. Mother's reference from 1969-1970, quoting his personal friend Julis Iatridis, a personal friend and fellow Civil Engineer, whom she enthusiastically quoted as saying: "He was incredibly gifted and amazing to almost everybody within the Masonic circles. Possibly had reached a very high degree[64] in just a couple of years".
    3. His own testimony to mother in 1972-1973: "A bunch of lunatics who concern themselves with b*llshit..".
    It was desirable by this author to validate any kind of information concerning his exact date of registering and stay duration with the lodge, so this author sent this very polite email (26/4/2021) to the Lodge in Athens from their contact page. No response as of 29/4/2021. Based on the (somewhat expected) non-response, and all the aforementioned references (1./2. above), several interesting facts can be immediately concluded:
    1. He likely registered sometime between 1967-1968, taking advantage of his Ministerial appointment, particularly since these people tend to reject people with weak work-resumes, probably thinking gullibly that he could increase his beneficial working influence through some important connections and contacts.
    2. After the completion of his Ph.D. thesis, he probably was initiated to a quite high degree, until 1972-1973, when something appears to have happened and he quit attending services unofficially/altogether around 1972-1973, by plainly ignoring them without mentioning anything bad about them, except when asked by mother (3. above).
    Of course, we all know what happened in 1973: The betrayal of Papadopoulos by Ioannides and the second coup after the Polytechnic uprising. The aforementioned reporter has an extensive list of government officials who were members from 1967 το 1974, like Papadopoulos himself, but Ioannides is (very conveniently) mentioned ONLY for the period during the third "government" (after his coup against Papadopoulos) under prime minister Androutsopoulos. Quoting from page 536 (this author's translation): "The Essential Governor of the country (meaning after Ioannides' Nov. 1973 coup against Papadopoulos) was Dimitrios Ioannides - an invisible force, according to Masonic principles[28] - and well-known for his Zionist(?![30]) and Masonic ties". I don't know which of the two is more suspicious: That the reporter mentions Ioannides as "known for his Masonic ties" only AFTER 1973 or that he was in fact "known for his masonic ties" ONLY after 1973. In either case, something stinks very suspiciously here. The exact details will probably never be known since my Father died in 1986 without uttering a word about his involvement with Freemasonry to me, but one thing is fairly certain: That if we assume Julis Iatrides' quote above, some serious adversarial headbutting took place during my Father's stay at the Lodge, around 1970-1971. Very likely backstabbing related to credentials for assuming corresponding positions of authority, either within the Lodge[26] or in Papadopoulos' government[11], probably in combination with friendlies in NTUA for his full-professorship assignment. Knowing my Father's excellent character and absolute disrespect for fascist mentality people who violently try to usurp power however undeservingly, he probably quit the Lodge sometime around the beginning of 1973, in total disgust and disrespect for their methods, practices, and probably covert side-involvement in government practices. Given his somewhat disparaging and sarcastic reciprocal sense of humor for d*cksize power wars, this would very likely explain his anecdotal quote, which I repeat for the sake of clarity, so that no mistaken ideas about my Father's incidental involvement with Freemasonry are ever entertained by the reader: Freemason Organizations: "A bunch of lunatics who concern themselves with b*llshit.."[26]. In any case, this author's Father was completely unaware and absolutely NOT involved in the later 1974 Cyprus tragedy - whether through the Lodge or the government (pages 209, 397, 201-202) as after Nov. 1973 he was vehemently hunted down by Ioannides' agents[13] and away from "official" Masonic circles and Papadopoulos' government. In this sense, the reporter should have been more careful with his "research" book[28] about the exact membership list DATES of the Lodges, for the periods he states. Listed as a REGISTERED member from 1966-1978, implicitly gives the impression that not only he was an active member during the entire aforementioned period, but also that he enjoyed some of the benefits of the lodge up to 1978 (he went almost completely broke after his deposition from both his jobs[4] and relied only on his estate property and this author has no evidence of the Lodge ever supporting him financially as it should have, according to some of their so-called "fundamental" principles for member-support or helping people in need in their official credos), but that he was also explicitly involved in the Cyrpus tragedy through Ioannides' coup, which he wasn't, as mentioned above. In particular, he had nothing to do with this[59], this, or this Ioannides sh*t. Plainly put, the data from Mr. Τσαρούχας' book is at least highly unreliable as far as who's responsible for the Cyprus issue and how the Lodge was involved[50].
  26. Given their silence to my aforementioned email, it's much worse than that: The Lodge not only tried to block my Father's ascent in their hierarchy through adversarial betrayal, they also completely censored my Father's reputation for 50 years now after he left the Lodge, as they have absolutely no reference to ANY of the helping work he had done while in Papadopoulos' Ministerial position[4] or ANY of his engineering work in his resume, including his Ph.D thesis. You can almost tell who was probably very annoyed with some of my Father's credentials in the Lodge. Here's a nice and very humble(4*) dedication by my Father of a book containing his Ph.D. typeset thesis[44] to a fellow(!) NTUA Professor Anton. Loizos, who today figures prominently in the Lodge's DISTINGUISHED GREEK TEKTONS(!) as an engineer that specialized in Statics/Mechanics and Bridge building(!) and was a professor in NTUA's department of stone and wooden bridges, wall support, and foundations and general bridge construction. Or, how about by even mentioning through this dedication someone who figures NON-prominetly (his own advisor(!?)[22] who afterward made it to Minister of Education and Religion, Rector of NTUA and formal member of the Greek Academy(!), or by just having considered others as "trusty" friends[33] at one time or another by virtue of them being "excellent" in their fields...) in the Lodge's "greek" tektons? On the other hand, my Father's Bridge and other Engineering Constructions figure prominently only at Alpha Centauri's good solid engineering Earthworks, suitable for alien space-craft landing. To conclude, not only he was backstabbed and betrayed in jealousy by some members of the Lodge and at NTUA[11], not only he was excommunicated and hunted down after Ioannides, but his thesis was also copyright stolen by a former student[22] and an associate, auctioned to the US for cash[17], his Engineering work's importance and records disappeared[36] or were downplayed[27], degraded and he finally was made a black-sheep work-fugitive by the Ioannides government and Lodge, with some of the internal adversaries[19] achieving positions of substantial power after 1973, probably in exchange for lying services provided against many members of the Papadopoulos' government. Add to that, that not only he wasn't offered any later financial support by Freemason fellow members of the Lodge during 1973-1978, but also that everybody played the crazy-duck game concerning his last name's very friendly capitulation[76] from various rogues who tried to gain incidental fame from using this name. Cap all the previous with the fact that during and after his death his second "wife"[19] auctioned most of his personal belongings, such as paintings (add photos as time allows), personal items, and God only knows what else and that all these "traditional" governments knew about not only who my Father was, but also kept silent about this grotesque betrayal and you have the perfect recipe for a VERY angry N. Galidakis Casper ghost[31]. To summarize, the updated opinion of this author as it was sent to the Lodge in the aforementioned email, for Freemason Organizations and extending it somewhat to include all the above "traditional political beneficiaries" and members of secret organizations of dubious pseudo-philosophico-theological quality, like Freemasons, "Skull & Bones" or other pseudo-patriotic closet fascists ([20], [17], [6.6]): "Stinky and disgusting always-lying traitors who are interested only in money and power and that's not the least of it...". The reporter aforementioned is very likely quite right about at least the Masons.
  27. I am still trying to find ANY info I can about the works mentioned in [36] from Google and other search engines. Some don't even have their original names anymore or have been often sabotaged to look like cheapo structures, like the Syggrou-Kallirrois above ground passageway (αερογέφυρα Συγγρού-Καλλιρρόης). Others have completely disappeared or simply... cannot be found because of changed or lost names! If I wasn't any more paranoid, I should like to think that most of my Father's work has been ghosted on purpose.
  28. WRONG, Mr. Τσαρούχα. The "invisible force" in Masonic principles is The Grand Architect of the Universe, Mr. Τσαρούχα. Not a common mortal, no matter WHAT his initiation degree in ANY Lodge. Belief in this "invisible force" or "God" is one of the accreditation requirements to be accepted in a Masonic initiates circle.
  29. This author would love to know just HOW this reporter got hold of these membership lists since Masonic Lodges have been traditionally very closed-minded concerning divulging practices and dogma from within their corresponding circles outwards. This author tried to find a way to contact the author of this book, but any public addresses of his are nowhere to be found(!). Maybe he eventually suffered from some of the consequences from (treacherously) publishing confidential information about a really powerful organization, like he claims in his book: Complete fame degradation, opinion censorship, and work downplaying.
  30. "Zionist" ties? And how exactly does the author of this "research" book know this? Any references for him being a "Zionist" supporter or is it that perhaps the author is drawing generalized conclusions based on Ioannides' Jewish ancestry? Or perhaps because Ioannides was chess buddies with Kissinger who chose him to upset Papadopoulos because the latter refused air-support to the US fighters during the Yom Kippur Papadopoulos incident, something which ticked off the Americans. Or, maybe because he called backup support with snipers from Mossad[56] to finish-off any disagreeables from Papadopoulos' gov.?
  31. Amazingly, throughout the years 1976-1986, I've NEVER heard him complain about all this[35]. Not even a word against all this trash that followed him? Or against some of his prior "friends" while he was powerful at the Ministry? Virtual proof of the absolute Excellence of his character.
  32. Definition of fair competition according to Konofagos: When your Engineering (or other) "credentials" fail in a government, switch narrative to anti-"fascist" pseudo-libertarian commie, pretending to be helping the "status" of NTUA by denying entry to the government's agents. After the dust settles down, if possible, write a book about the whole thing by accusing other Engineers who had nothing to do with the NTUA revolt and who had better credentials, that their professorship assignments were due to fraudulent elections and government interventions to prove your new position and then continue normally with the new regime as if nothing has happened.
  33. Academician "Dr." Kounadis after a distress phone call to him in 1975-1976 by this author and after hearing the name "Γιάννης Γαλιδάκης", from the Parthenonos 33 residence: "Hello? Anybody there? I cannot hear you well...The line must be having problems...". I guess this academician had forgotten by 1975 all the good times his family had at the Ministry's sponsored athletic installations of Agios Kosmas, where he was a guest in 1970-1972 and in friendly embraces with this family[6.20] and other officials from Papadopoulos' gov., like Secretary-General of the Ministry of Athletics K. Aslanidis, who also served as Assistant-Minister of Education and Religion.[60]
  34. The philosophical depth of this relatively short piece of advice relative to time - given all the trouble my Father went through before he died is so immense, it would take several months of work to analyze fully: It relates to thousands of already given Stoic affirmations ("Άφοβον ο Θεός, ...") and covers quickly most serious theist's philosophical bases, in admitting that you should never proclaim whatever nonsense you think is true about God, rather remain silent and research the subject at depth, even if under penalty of meeting very harsh obstacles. Hence humble (advice !12*). Implicitly pointing out that these are troubling times as if nastiness has spread all over everyone (perhaps even over the author and his son included). Brief and to the point, instead of pointing out elaborately disposable apocalyptic theology or abstract philosophical rant that leads nowhere. Hence, excellent advice and protection for the naively educated (i.e., this author at the time), reinforcing their belief and hence trustworthy (advice). Advice with long-term benefits for the listener, even after you turn out non-religious or atheist (as a very subtle warning that somebody out there may be watching), hence supremely intelligent (advice). Utilitarian (instead of scaring your living daylights out by suggesting the plainly obvious for the stupid) and non-offensive to atheists (particularly after finding out that it might have been intended as a sarcastic joke against any naive listener). Pre-Socratically, gnostically, and perhaps Descartian in-evil-geniously deep. Silently indicative of an excellent character that's been sharpened to shinning gold's brilliance by the hammer of life's troubles (Rev. 3:18). Implying great trouble (past or future), yet neither whiny nor complaining. Non-accusative, rather dismissive of devil scape-goating anyone (Jude 9, [55]) by pointing out the obvious in trust that someone may do something about it in the future. Tragically and almost sadly ironic (in that nobody has done anything about it so far) so very subtly and silently pointing towards (i.e., just in case) atheism (Rev. 3:18)[58].
  35. ([31.]) Except only very mildly on a single occasion in 1983 after playing some chess with this author at coffee-shop Πανελλήνιον, and even then his "complaint" was given in a very subtle way (and difficult to decode for this 20 year-old idiot at the time) and in a tragically sarcastic and sad philosophical[36] manner, through his mentioning of his favorite pop song O Koutalianos[54].
  36. In other words, no matter how gifted you are or how much good work, [15] you do for the benefit of others, if you don't bend to their nefarious purposes, in the end they will f*ck you up so badly[26], that you'll need to become a public display circus-freak to survive. Also about his current situation (1983) through an indirect and very silent reference[6.1] about his second "wife" (Koutalianos' wife [6], [14]. Perhaps even an older reference for mother herself[13]).
  37. Along with Panagiotis Prokopiou, Nikos Rigos[126] and perhaps 1-2 others this author has no more information for, like Dimitris Psallidas (chess coffee-shop Πανελλήνιον), Aristotelis Martinis, Joulis Iatrides, Eutychea Arabatzi, Leonidas and Konstandinos Psarakis and Anastassis Sarris[42]. All the rest turned to ghost-dust "promptly", after 25 Nov. 1973[13]. Perhaps even earlier. And then you get [11], [35], etc.
  38. You can easily tell he's in no generally happy mood for "celebrations" of any sort. Reasons unknown (i.e., NOT the face of someone who's celebrating his positional power advantages for fame reasons). Ditto for [7] and [9].
  39. Not to even mention that this author remembers her being invited at his 3rd birthday party along with around 25-30 guests (among whom dad's secretary at the Ministry, Kambanas, Yiorgos Kombopoulos[86] - godfather #1, Michalis Orlandos - godfather #2[31.22], etc.), and asking me against the wall at the Fokionos Negri 48 residence: "How old are you Γιαννάκη?".To which I remember replying "three". Probably the earliest memory remnant of this stench. Talk about always harboring VERY friendly feelings about Father's son - this author, since at least 1967(contact). If not sooner[89]. At least as soon as after dad was appointed Secretary-General at the Ministry. She must have been searching for dad for a looong time[6.1], [6.7], ... Too bad she mercilessly kicked him out[19] while weak, friendless, penniless, and betrayed by EVERYONE on Earth, including ALL US and Greek major Political & Economic factors after 1973, in a foreign country, at a time of great personal distress, around March 1986 having nowhere to go[40] and he died from a heart attack from the stress. Now she'll have to deal with the extra-cancerous pain and there won't be any efficient painkillers to cover her debilitating distress after this somewhat stupid mistake (Rx Prescription recipe that masks pain effectively for a loved one, Rev. 18).
  40. After being kicked out by "name" in March of 1986, dad asked[41] very humbly Dora Eudaimonos (69834582278) if he could temporarily stay at her household with her husband[39] and kids, but she refused because of [66].
  41. It's somewhat fairly obvious why my Father didn't want to return to this author's mother's household[13].
  42. Who, when in an encounter with this author in Crete accused his dead Father of being a "m*l*k*s"(second stupid mistake [73]), his face froze and he looked like dead for about 5 minutes.
  43. NOT a happy camper with ψευδο-scientific b*llshit.
  44. This book has an interesting background story: This author ordered it after questioning the bookstore owner (some "Kostas I. Anastopoulos" @alfeiosbooks@gmail.com where he got the rights from), and his reply was "it was bought privately" (email 1). Due to the need for digitization of the original document which Google refuses to release, the book was directed to EKT to aid in the documentation for the corresponding Ph.D. digital thesis entry. After the reassurance of the EKT secretary responsible for the digitization that it cannot be digitized without being damaged, this author offered to exchange it for a paper copy that he used for its translation at ResearchGate. After the book came into this author's home, the author noticed the dedication described above in [26]. Had the book stayed at EKT, the author would be unaware of this dedication. This author recontacted the owner of the bookstore, trying to get him to divulge the seller, but the owner has been silent ever since (email 2). So has been Google in divulging their digital version's book's patron.
  45. Bank deposit booklet on his name, left to mother's household - including this author, after he left in 1973, dated: 4/12/1970.
  46. Humble (5*) Receipt[47] from buying jewelry store equipment and materials for mother's new jewelry store in Kallithea (named "Brightness"), dated 5/8/1978 - after leaving for a second time the Parthenonos 33 household[87], via his cousin Nikos Rigos[62]. Humble(*) deposit for this author, a bit after he left for Switzerland.
  47. At LEAST (9*) on Excellent humility, in this Biography.
  48. The meaning of this photo is a little more than obvious!: "Please, DO NOT APPROACH, absent a VERY good reason...!".
  49. My favorite, a little before trouble started. Not sure who's the photo addressed to, but these aren't the faces of men who are dictatorial and fascist government Ministers and Prime Ministers. These are the faces of some Angels, ready to serve Humanity. The most important one, in the most humble position(!) From left to right(!) Had this man been left alone to do his job - even after a combined first attempt against him in 1944, Greece would be a war-deterrent Nuclear power, with unlimited Energy reserves and Mediterranean would be a Paradise. He was not (left to do his job). So the world you see is the result you get. Best of luck next time, with your god's next world. NOT mine: B^{;)>.
  50. Ioannidis actually showed a bending response to US pressure on the Cyprus tragedy (Bethanis), by ordering all military personnel to return to their bases. From the testimont of navy conscript Kostas Sourlas[58] from a submarine for all military/navy personnel to return to base and have coffee and a smoke in response to the invasion. This was later verified by a paper on English 101 class of Carla Mettling at UIC for additional reasons of failure to intervene. Christopher Hitchens - whose wife was Cypriot, has a book detailing the issue and the connections with Israeli security in the Mediterranean. There's no additional mention of the Lodge influencing events positively during the Cyprus tragedy[51], note however that some of the most predominant factors in the government after the invasion were members of the Lodge. I.e. some in [17], and some of whom retained their priviledged positions, reinforcing the conclusion in [26].
  51. The Kissinger/Ioannides deal against Papadopoulos was simple: promising Ioannides power in exchange for Makarios' head because Makarios was flirting with Russia and Papadopoulos was planning upgrades in Greece's Nuclear Power infrastructure which was a no-no for the Israelis after the Yom Kippur Papadopoulos incident in the Mediterranean. Ioannides upturns Papadopoulos after the uprising (1973), but is cheated out of the deal on the Cyprus conflict and the turks invade freely (duplicate score report details at youtube comments: here (mine) and here (Truck trucker's comment)).
  52. Father's mention about obtaining a doctorate and the relative importance of different ones in 1982 in Syntagma square[31]. Entering Ph.D. program in 2010. Agricultural University's candidate assignment and trilateral advisor committee assignment with gatzouras (vanished into thin air?), charitos, and papadoperakis (vanished to Kongo). Proposals for research subject to the advisor. 5 different subject proposals - including a translation for Father's Ph.D. thesis, all denied by the advisor. Ridiculous requests by the advisor for additional publications. After publications come, the advisor disappears. gatzouras moves to another planet. haritos could care less (ref. Thanks_4_Thesis_Approval_email), and other very interesting coincidences... Advising committee dissolves probably by end of 2017-18. Testament of research for years 2010-2020 published at bottom of math section. Link to the ones referencing Father's thesis. All this cr*p, only after this[116].
  53. Since forgiven, of course, as obviously oblivious to Father's situational pressure and hunting down by Ioannides' agents.
  54. This author recalls a meeting in Syntagma Square around 1980-81, when he kindly asked him to get him a couple of copies of his Ph.D. thesis printouts by Kambanas, among the ones he had left back home, citing a very urgent need to use it probably as a resume reference for a newly applied professorship position in Geneva[52]. "name" or somebody else with access sells the Ph.D. thesis to the US government after 2009 (? possibly as early as 1996 when she served as "security" defense advisor under Tsohatzopoulos). Eventually, landing at U of C's Library? Google's digitization of thesis after its Library Project. Why no access to the book's contents? Shutdown request to Google of digital book page in 2021. Google complies after removal request [7-4031000031669]. Update ref. [17]. Google's continued denial to reveal the book's patron or admit that this author is the only rightful patron by the law of © inheritance (as of 20/3/2021). Still no response for the Αλφειός' copy origins (16/5/2021). Last attempt at deposition of dissertation to EKT (National Documentation Center) successful (as of 6/4/2021). What's the relation between Nuclear fission/fusion and the crack on the anisotropic disk in H#20? Surprise! Tearing of space-time continuum as a ripping "crack" in space-time in Nuclear explosions? Article on Research Gate with connections. The nuclear explosion creates a crack in the space-time continuum that propagates as a Lichtenberg figure with crack-tip changing direction randomly but always bounded in radius by the blast-wave. Did the Americans know this when the Father's thesis was published in 1968? How come Greece is not a Nuclear Power yet? Did Ioannides and the States know this after the Polytechnic uprising? Why after 1973 Papadopoulos' denial for resupply of American planes to aid Israel?. On a subsequent date, I brought him 4-5 copies, but never heard anything about his reasons for needing them again, until one of his later letters around 1984, where he wrote back to me in the States very disappointed that he was denied employment at Geneva, because they found him "too theoretical"(?!) for an Engineering professorship position. Gives you a certain sense of how "advanced" in Engineering the Swiss are: Precisely as advanced as only able to make very accurate famous clocks and cheeses. Dad's PhD's importance, Papadopoulos' Democritus & Energy production plant planned upgrades and the US interference, after Papadopoulos' denial for air-support for the Yom Kippur war (Quora). The fate of Greece as a non-nuclear power, because of that. Eventual deprecation of the Democritus reactor as a research center and shut down in 2005.
  55. On a meeting with this author around 1984 in Nea Smyrni: "If you want to make it, pack your bags and leave. This country has been taken by the Devil...".
  56. Hundreds of online ref.s for this, but never any "official" ones. Just Google search the words: "Πολυτεχνείο"+"Μοσάντ". Maybe check out this, or this one, before bothering with the rest of links to that extent. I emailed Mossad (info@mossad.gov.il) about it - making fun of them for having mistakenly rendered Papadopoulos an anti-semite after the Yom Kippur incident, and their response was something akin to "couldn't read because server failed to deliver your message...". On all my four messages...[131].
  57. God, how I wish to see the faces of the children of some of these guys in [11], [25], [26] and [108] one day, when they read this biography. How I wish...
  58. Never found out his exact (later, post-1979) religious/philosophical beliefs. He was baptized and raised a Greek Orthodox Christian, and I do remember him (1976) wearing a tiny gold cross, along with a little Greek protection from evil-eye ornament on his neck, as somewhat superstitious.
  59. Translating the top and bottom red paragraphs from pg. 5 of the communist "Antizionist"/"Antifreemason" Cretan newspaper "The Truth" [translation, refs and parenthetical remarks mine:] "• The attack against Education(!)[school's inauguration], [free books], [work4Greece], • the moral degradation(!)[excellence], • the attack against religion(!)[anti-religious], • the disolution of religious organizations(!?)[anti-religious 2]" and: "ΣΤ' THE ATTACK AGAINST RELIGION. Immediately and since the beginning(!) the policy of the masonic junta[sic] was antichristian(!)[anti-christian gov.] But it was conducted very camouflaged[sic](!?) With the occupation of the governing arche by Brigadier D. Ioannides, the Judeo-masonic(!?) hatred[sic.](!!) dropped every pretext and launched a relentless campaign against the Church and against Religion, more generally...", or further down: "I) THE DISSOLUTION OF RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONS... In the before last page of the masonic(!) newspaper "Eleftheros Kosmos"...", and other similar nonsense.
  60. This author sent a very polite short email to Mr. Kounadis, Honoris doc. and Honorary Citizen Award member of many Academies and distinguished Civil Engineering Professor, with a doctorate, acquired while his "friend"[(congrats!)](!) was Secretary-General of the Ministry of Education and Religion, to thank him for all his help in clarifying whether his "friend" was "illegally" appointed Professor at NTUA without a valid election result from the "Association of Full-professors". I am sure he duly appreciated it.
