Thanks for the info on Guido, Pratik. I?ll wait patiently to hear from him. A possible change of jobs? Can you tell us about it? In any case, if it?s something you want, I?m sure we all wish you luck. Would you be moving out of New York, possibly in search of better weather? BTW, I have a cousin who teaches French literature at CUNY. I know it?s a big university with many branches, but there?s always a possibility you might have come in contact with him. Do you know any professors in the French Dpeartment?
