And what's more, you should join the HPFGU-NewYork Yahoogroup...
groups.yahoo.com/group/hpfgu-newyork -- we plan our periodic get-togethers
there. Folks come from as far away as London (::grin at Neil::), Boston and
DC for our meetings.

Well, I'm a full-time student of International Relations at St Andrews in
Scotland. This summer I'm teaching learning-disabled kids to read, spell and
process thoughts -- it's the most rewarding thing I've ever done, and is
making me seriously (re)consider teaching as a career.
