Thanks for the update. I'm sorry about Peter. He was very kind to us when we arrived in Fort Worth from Beirut, where my husband had been Chair of the Political Science Dept at the American University of Beirut. We were experiencing the culture shock of a return to the U.S. AND being in Texas, where the subculture is quite different from that of the West Coast where we felt very comfortable. But we loved Fort Worth. I worked for the United Way for a number of years, and got to know the community. Glad to have another contact there. Thanks for writing to me. k. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mrs. Karin M.
