Glad to hear that you also approve of Puglia, Bob. I wish now that I’d planned to stay longer, so that I could fit in one of the seven-day bicycle tours available from Lecce. One of tours is also a course in Italian. That would’ve been fun. My knowledge of ancient history, apart from philosophy, is next to nil. Thanks for bringing Cannae to my attention. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA [email protected] "Our world is a human world." - Hilary Putnam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
