First, thanks very much to everyone for their good wishes. I was, and am, honored, humbled, and surprised to get the fellowship. Reading the bios of people who won in previous years was always aspirational for me - I wished I was that sort of person, and I think it'll be days before I really process the fact that I won one as well. I'm just hoping that I don't get a call tomorrow where they tell me they've made a mistake! Second, congrats to JoAnn for her daughter's remarkable achievement. I can't believe she didn't say something earlier! The award she received is actually far more impressive, because it's for creating and enacting a real program to do immensely valuable work. New American Fellowships, by contrast, are more for - potential is probably the best word. What your daughter is doing is really extraordinary, and I hope you give her my best wishes as well. ===== Gautam Mukunda [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Freedom is not free" http://www.mukunda.blogspot.com __________________________________ Celebrate Yahoo!'s 10th Birthday!
