Some reports say that he started the campaign on Sunday - it is going viral now.Earlier this afternoon the page for the campaign is actually down - could not cope with the volume. Haha! :)But it's back up now: Greek Bailout Fund"Per his crowdfunding page, Feeny figures the 503 million people in the European Union need only pony up 6 euros each for a Greek Feta and Olive salad to solve the immediate debt crisis.Those pledging 10 euros qualify for a voucher good for a bottle of ouzo, while those able to donate 25 euros qualify for a bottle of Greek wine.By late Tuesday, more than 16,000 people had pledged a total of more than 254,000 euros, leaving just 1,599,746,000 euros to go."More details on the project founder, Thom Feeney, a 29-year-old Yorkshireman and the Greek Bailout Fund campaign
