::blinking:: Wow... right... I remember you telling me you got this gig.

::grinning:: You are sweet and smart and loving beyond words. I'd love to
contribute, and here's what I can do with the schedule I've got. Barbara and
I are doing three days of teaching from the Dali Lama 12th-14th August. At
8AM 18th August, we're on a plane for three weeks in Bali. ::wider grin::
>From Dali to Bali! Ennyway, I'm sorta racing to wrap things up before we
leave, but how's about a phone conversation?

I'll be home tomoro late morning my time, or in the evening my time if you
wanna give me a call and if then's not a great time, we can make a phone
date. 212-265-6159. If that's busy, I'm online... try 212-581-4831, it'll be
Barbara's machine. If I here yer voice, I'll run into the next room to get
the phone. Fair?

::softly:: Yer a heroine of mine, hon. Y'are. And I'm honored to be of
service, kay?

loveyou

K
