Hi -
Just letting you know that the August-Sept. schedule is now online. Jean
sent it to me a couple of weeks ago but somehow I overlooked it and didn't
get it online right away.
BTW - I recently discovered that Jean has an entry in Wikipedia. If
you're not familiar with Wikipedia, I suggest you check it out. There's
an interesting feature there whereby you can see not only the current
article but all its revisions. (You get to it by clicking on History.)
ANyway, the very first version of the article on Jean can be found here:
