Good evening all Listees!
Geoff Miller, my nephew, needs information some of you may be
able
to furnish. I've copied his request below.
Professor Miller is quite a scholar. When he graduated first in his
class at Columbia Universty Law School, where he was Editor of the Law
Review, no less than three Supreme Court judges wanted him to clerk
for them (he chose
Whizzer White). After a short stay in the Justice Department as one of
the team of advisers to the President, and a brief stint at a Washington
law firm,
Geoff made a career move to Chicago University Law School, where he
taught
for a number of years and served as assistant dean. Now back in New
York, he
teaches at NYU School of Law and conducts a series of international
seminars
in a program he established in his specialty -- banking .
Please don't ask me why Geoff has gone from summit meetings
combining
( in one recent instance) the presidents of six Latin American central
banks and
the heads of the IMF, the World Bank and the US Federal Reserve to
the mundane world of parking-lot Parkinson politics! I suspect the
answer is -- he hasn't. He's in the middle of a bitter divorce
proceeding involving custody, etc., and the person this req uest is
meant for may be a friend who is helping him through this difficult
period, perhaps a woman.......
I could fantasize 'til the cows come home -- but it's possible the
request truly is his own! In any event, if we help him on this we can
turn around and
seek his assistance on legal matters far removed from Banking 101. His
E-mailreads:
Elliott,
I am doing an academic study of handicapped parking rules. Any
information
you can give me about how the Parkinson's community organize,
lobbies, or
otherwise views these matters -- or who might know about this?
Geoff
If those lisstees who can give him a hand on this would copy me I
wou ld
appreciate it. Geoff's address:
[log in to unmask]
I forgot to mention that his scholarship extends to the old
testament, which he has devoured cover- to- cover several times and on
which he regularly submits well-footnoted articles to learned
journals, his latest being
an investigation of verbal feuds.
Cheers, Elliott
