Vienna two weekends ago. Detroit last week. Two Christmas parties and three private dinner events in the seven work-days I was in Frankfurt these past two weeks. And on top of it all I caught a really bad flu. (My nose is actually hurting from being cleaned so much.) Today seems to be the first day I have really any time to do “personal” things again. It’s weeks like these that I notice how old I have become.

I did catch up with my email, finally; if you sent me something directly and didn’t get a reply… then the malign email gods ate it. Please resend!
