Peter, Peter,
Can I reach you this way. I've been trying both your e-mails and phone which seems to be out of service. If you get this will you write back right away. First, to let me know you're all right. And second to give me a phone number so we can talk. It's the time of the summer where I have to finalize the next course year, and hope, of course, that you will be a part of it once again.
Thanks. . .Stn
