Hello Olaf!
So you are in Taunton.  My parents' house is on Cape Cod and I will be
spending some time there this summer, at least until it is sold.  My dad
died in 99, and my mother in Jan of 2003, so my bro and I emptied it out and
put it on the market.  I live in the Village of Tariffville between Simsbury
and Granby in Connecticut, so we are not far from each other.
Just had lunch with Phlip and Margali!  They just left.  I will be in the
SPCA camp at Pennsic this summer, but hope to meet you before then!
I have friends in Nepal.  Long story.  Maybe one day I will tell.  They have
been wanting me to visit for years.  I have a Buddhist monk friend here who
espcaped from Nepal after the monastery he lived in was sacked by some
members of the communist party trying to get a stronghold in Nepal.  He told
me it was not a good place for tourists when I met him, but that was year
ago, so maybe things have calmed down.
I also lived in Israel for a year back in 1972.  I am born Jewish but I am a
Buddhist, have been since 1987.
Let's keep talking
