From Wikipaedia.
Kratinos was awarded nine times for his plays. His numerous work fragments were saved by Ancient biologist Atheneos.
His scathing humour was impetuous and prominent. He is said to have been initiated in Orphism and was a follower of Bacchus.
Kratinos belonged to the Oeneis tribe, one of the ten tribes of Ancient Athens.
He is referred to by proponents of the Erasmian theory of Ancient Greek pronunciation. For this, his famous phrase is: «Ὁ δ' ἠλίθιος ὥσπερ πρόβατον βῆ βῆ λέγων βαδίζει».
There are, however, serious objections to the Erasmian style of Greek pronunciation by many scholars.

HAVE THEY GONE MAD?
No they are just trying to scaremonger others into submission.
The talk as of recent is about the newly "declared " EEZ between Turkey and Libya.
This unilateral declaration is ill-conceived unemployable as it is internationally unacceptable. The Turks refuse Greece's right to an EEZ with the only reasoning that: Islands have NO continental shelf. They used this false argument to make their deal with Libya. Of course we all know what a divided country Libya is after the fall of Kaddafi.
In fact it makes me think...
Is this part of the grand plan of the Imperialist world forces in order to get their hands on cheap energy resources?
As we know ALL NON ALLIED NATIONS have suffered either for their resources or their political standings or both.
Malta: See what happened to Mintoff.
Yugoslavia: Destroyed with war by Imperialism.
Libya: Destroyed with war by Imperialism.
Iraq: Destroyed with war by Imperialism.
Syria: Destroyed with war by Imperialism.
Cyprus: Destroyed with war by Imperialism.
Greece: Destroyed with economic war by Imperialism and recently threat of War by the expansionist actions of Turkey.
Turkey without subscribing to international Law threatens the very survival of what should be one of their allies.
So is Turkey right? should islands not be included in the creation of an EEZ? have they no continental shelf?
Under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, "the name continental shelf was given a legal definition as the stretch of the seabed adjacent to the shores of a particular country to which it belongs."
From the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS)
"The continental shelf of a coastal State comprises the seabed and subsoil of the
submarine areas that extend beyond its territorial sea throughout the natural
prolongation of its land territory to the outer edge of the continental margin, or to
a distance of 200 nautical miles from the baselines from which the breadth of the
territorial sea is measured where the outer edge of the continental margin does not
extend up to that distance."
From the Maritime Zones
Islands
"Islands are naturally formed land areas surrounded by water on all sides. Islands must be above the water at high tide and able to sustain human habitation or economic life of their own.19 Islands possess the same maritime zones as other landmasses, including a territorial sea, contiguous zone, EEZ, and continental shelf. Islands do not need to be inhabited to create those maritime zones; they only need to be capable of sustaining human habitation or economic life. See below for information on artificial islands, which are treated differently than naturally occurring islands."
Rocks
"A rock in the LOSC is defined as an island that is unable to support human habitation or economic life. Rocks provide their owners with less control than islands, providing only a territorial sea and a contiguous zone. They do not create or further the extent of an EEZ. Rock is a legal term and does not refer to any particular type of geological formation. For example, a sandbar can be considered a rock."

Below are the maps of internationally accepted EEZs of the countries involved in the dispute of the East Mediterranean courtesy of:
MARINE REGIONS
CYPRUS
GREECE
TURKEY
LIBYA
EGYPT
Of course EEZ' can only be agreed between partners, but these are the internationally accepted proposed parameters set by all International bodies.
Turkey has not signed the UNCLOS agreement so how is it that uses the EEZ code to promote its Illegal claims?
Of course this is a rhetorical question as we all know Turkey acts CRAZY!
HEY TYRKISH... ARE YOU PART OF OUR INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY?
