The iconostasis [c1.staticflickr.com] Click the small radio buttons below the photo of the exterior view [sideways.nyc] for glimpses of the interior. The video shows a fire of incredible magnitude and fury, as would be expected in a temple of this size and design. Prayers for our Serbian Orthodox brethren and thanks be to God that no one was injured or killed! The photos at the Daily Mail site [dailymail.co.uk] show the destructive power of the inferno even more graphically. Many years, Neil "One day all our ethnic traits ... will have disappeared. Time itself is seeing to this. And so we can not think of our communities as ethnic parishes, ... unless we wish to assure the death of our community."
