Hello fellow emeriti,<br>
<br>
Some of you may have wondered why you received a print copy of the
newsletter earlier this week rather than before our luncheon as
usual.<br>
<br>
Robert Burns summed it up nicely: <br>
The best laid schemes o' mice an' men<br>
Gang aft agley, [<i>often go awry</i>] <br>
<br>
Our plans to have the Emeriti Newsletter to you early in September
(the print copy, that is, you received the e-mail version about
three weeks ago) got lost in O.U.'s bureaucracy. <br>
<br>
Similarly our annual letter to you, which was written early in
August, still has not arrived... for similar reasons. When (and
assuming that it will) reach you please complete the info card in it
and return it in the envelop provided (again, assuming that there is
an envelop which was part of the plan).<br>
<br>
Thank you.<br>
<br>
Ed <br>
