Hmmm, I like this game!  (and I like Andie McDowell when she's not
whining.)
Unfortunately I have to burst this bubble.  I'm blonde blonde blonde
(short, chin length) and greeeeen eyed. (Blonder and shorter after an
afternoon at a shishi San Francisco salon.)  Lise Deschamps Ostwald,
though, appears to be the thoroughbred sort, and I'm sure I heard that
her stallion answers to "Valjean."

Hello f_minors!  I'm back from vacation and am thrilled that you've left
me oodles of e-mail to sort through.  In the next couple of days I hope
to post a _San Francisco Examiner_ story on the Gould symposium and my
humble impressions of the Ostwald bio as well as my own remarks on the
SF show which Kristen has so adeptly delineated.  (Kristen, "adeptly
delineated" is my contribution to your GG project!)

Soon,

P.S. If anyone needs help unsubscribing or with any other matter, I'm
available again.

P.P.S. Mail's on its way to Tim V. and Renate W. each of whom deserves
my eternal thanks, etc... Hi Mary L!
