this is from a newspaper article about that crash in Greece - specifically it is about that guy who cliamed to have rec'd a text message from his cousin on the plane:
Police in northern Greece also arrested a man who claimed to have received a telephone text message from his cousin who was on the plane before it crashed.
The man, who was identified as 32-year-old Nektarios-Sotirios Voutas, called Greek television stations shortly after the Helios Airways flight crashed, saying his cousin Nikos Petridis sent him a message that read: "Farewell, cousin, here we're frozen."
Voutas, a resident of the northern port city of Thessaloniki who had identified himself to Greek media as Sotiris Voutas, faced charges of disseminating false information and causing a public disturbance, police said.
WTF - why would sombody make a claim like that.
