This "Scrooge Special" was published in Greece? It would be
>wonderful to find out my stories have reached there. (Recently,
>David Gerstein has let me know some have been published in India.
>That, too, was fantastic.) Was there a code on my story? If not,
>do you know it's title or a simple description?

Anders already answered this question.

  This is one of those excellent stories that are published and sometimes
have passed unnoticed .These fascinating autumn colors and trees drew my
attention and I wrote my comment. The idea of this story is exciting and
unusual, touching contemporary ecological problems.
 I believe you and senior Ferioli did a wonderful work. Yes, the closing
scene is an apotheosis of the colors of the Indian summer.
