Hello everyone. Sorry for the silence lately. I returned from Lebanon and I'm down to my last few days in Berlin. I'll be in and out over the next few months, but I really only have a few days when I will actually be in Berlin--so I am busy trying to prepare talks for visits to Bulgaria, Hungary, Florida, Indiana, and Ukraine. It's all coming up very quickly. I'm also trying to spend as much time with the family as possible as I will be gone almost all of June and 1 week in July---my longest trip away for the year. What a drag. From the 2nd week of July to September, I should be with the family uninterrupted--I hope.

Anyway, I'll update a bit when I get a chance over the next couple of days. Thanks for your patience.
