I can't help but imagine the seating logistics of this visit on those responsible for organizing Tuesday's Installation. The last time an Orthodox Patriarch visited the Vatican, the seat had to be identical to the that of Pope JPII.

The Patriarch will have an entourage. The closest other occasion that comes to mind is JPII's funeral.

This is quite different, since it is an installation of a "first among equals". Looking forward to how this is handled.
