Well, the time is upon us. We've scheduled a public talk for 10-11 a.m. on
Wednesday the 20th of February (next Wednesday), in Clemons 322A. I hope
everyone who is able, and interested, will attend. Paul and Phil will also
be around on Friday, Monday, and Tuesday, so if you would like to meet with
them privately, please let me know what time would be good for you, and I
will arrange it. And of course, if you are of a mind to entertain, let me
know--the SDS grant would be glad to send you out to dinner one of those
nights, or over the weekend. I can testify that both Paul and Phil are
good company.
If you want to learn more about Paul, his home page is at:
http://idun.itsc.adfa.edu.au/SOE/staff/Paul.htm. He is Head of the School
of Language, Literature, and Communication, and Director of the Australian
Scholarly Editions Centre (http://idun.itsc.adfa.edu.au/ASEC/). I don't
have a home page for Phil, I'm afraid.
