[edit] Distance from Athens/Piraeus

Sifnos is claimed to be 130km or 80 nautical miles south of Piraeus. Which is it? 130km is 80 statute miles (`land miles') but only 70 nautical miles; 80 nautical miles is 148km.

[edit] Kastro as the 2nd major population centre on Sifnos?

In the introduction paragraph the village of Kastro is said to be the second largest population centre on Sifnos. I have visited Sifnos many times and my recollection is that Kastro is no longer a large population centre. Gerald Adams 21:36, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
