Hunter, I just wanted to let you know that Journal went to the publisher
yesterday and the article submitted by the Vice President is wonderful.
Interestingly and purely by coincidence, the first article to appear in the
Journal is on Estonia. The articles were selected a 5 weeks ago and like
your dad's article have taken on greater significance with the Crisis in
Ukraine. Thanks again and let me know when you are in Philadelphia so I can
take you to lunch. All the best, Jim
