Dear Dan,
	Want to get off a note of thanks, your 
new one having arrived. I know that 
I’ll read it with delight and recognition. 
You always had reality by the tail, 
only more and more so.
	Liked the article in Jubilee a 
great deal. We are going ahead on several 
fronts here - multiple meetings and 
much brewing. The reserves are now up 
tight, the grad students also - an enormous 
amount of work must be done on the campuses.
	Brendon and Willa well settled and very 
happy.  Suspect the D.C. environment rather 
sterile in comparison with the bunch here. 
They will begin rounding up witnesses today - 
gratitude for pinning down Eqbal and
