"NEA IONIA, Greece (AP) -- As relatives tell it, it was the stuff of Greek tragedy: A love-struck young man threw himself off his balcony Monday, two days after a quarrel prompted his girlfriend-- a member of Greece's Olympic judo team -- to jump from the same spot."
This just seems really bizarre to me. Especially the part about him just getting up from the lunch table and bolting for the balcony to "find Eleni," particularly since she was still alive.... anyone have any thoughts?

Seems more like Greek insanity than Greek tragedy to me...
