Hello. I'm feeling great right now. I enjoyed the rest after my busy NYC trip in my proud and sympathetic home. The Geneva weather recently smoothed out, and before long I darted across the Channel to Summer school. In my humble opinion, the great strength of British education is not the actual results or research data it produces, which is often considerable, but rather the mindset it gives to those people priviledged to attend, a "Can-do" attitude so often prided by Americans, but reinforced by a communal sharing of information and cameraderie. Call it socialism or collusion, but the worlds issues are bigger than one person to figure out which was one reason why Oxbridge was founded in the first place, after the models of Sienna, Cairo, Alexandria and Athens and the inspiration for The Ivy League, Stanford, U. of Toronto, U. Sydney and many aspirants to the same.
I look forward to my month in the South, to study physics and also to see how much "Swinging London" is remembered in this storied country. All indications are that it will live up to the Capital City's lead.
