Dear Eric,
I would like to make a reservation for 1 for Thursday, 24 Jan

> At the Grolier Club: The 118th Annual Meeting and Dinner (Grolier Club
> members only.)
Sound early, eh? But I know how difficult it can be at the last minute.
And furthermore, I am off to lecture in Italy at Spoleto for several weeks

All good wishes,
John Sharpe.
