Maybe he was serious--from his answer to someone he
could have been--but Guido has a wonderful, dry sense
of humor, as those who have been here for long enough
to remember him know. When he and Pratik and Gustavo,
who has passed away, graced us with their presence on
he life, life was full of smiles and laughter.
Recently we've just had Bob with the same kind of
humor--and Ann.
The CSUN conference is coming up in March. It will be
here in Los Angeles, near the airport. I believe the
date are from March 17 through the 21st. A lot of
amusing, silly conversations start occurring here in
preparation for that.
I'm hoping to be in town and able to come for lunch
one day, and Liz H. and I are planning to meet. A few
years ago I was able to have lunch with Carrie and
Pratik; somehow Scott B and i passed each other
without recognition. Who else of you are planning to
be there? Maybe we can all meet for lunch? There
usually is a volunteer evening get-together with
staff, but I can only come for lunch and would love to
meet some of you. In the past I've also met Donna
Smith and E., and I saw handsome Guido--an advantage
of having sight. smile And met briely Jim Fruchterman
and other staff who were on their way to a meeting.
Pavi, I understand you'll be going, at least for part
of the conference. Would it be possible to arrange for
a table and time for those who might like to get
together for lunch, preferably Wed. or later in the
week.
