Dear friends and colleagues,
I hope everybody enjoyed the National Day holiday. Just the calendar this week as I am on the road. I will be in Toronto, Boston and New York this week- readers there interested in meeting should get in touch, though my schedule is relatively tight. I will be in DC for most of next week with a slightly more leisurely schedule, so readers there should also get in touch. Hope to see some of you soon.
