NEW ROCHELLE, N.Y. ? If any non-Greek residents of New Rochelle had dropped in on the VIP Country Club on the night of Nov. 2, judging from the size of the crowd, the lavish array of food and drink, and the contagious exuberance on the dance floor and at the tables, they might have thought Nisyros must be a rather big place.
And if they were told about the numerous success stories of the Nisyrian-American community ? the countless, doctors, lawyers, academicians, entrepreneurs, politicians and, most notably, philanthropists ? they might even think that Nisyros is one the biggest islands in Greece.
Their jaw might drop if they were to learn just how tiny Nisyros is ? a wee dot on a typical Greek map, too small on which to even print its name!
