Dear Kyosei,

Thanks for the above note; I was all set to do something similar, but
restraint got the better of me...

The Rockies Summer Camp is indeed a wonderful gathering; the worst
thing one can say about it is that it produces profound mental
overload from all the material presented and useful work done!

I was on the staff at the '98 Festival in Boulder, Colorado, and
everyone worked their butts off (joyfully...).
Best,
eB

God grant me the Senility to forget the people I never liked anyway, the good fortune to run into the ones I do, and the eyesight to tell the difference...
