Shalom Safranim To all who have not heard, I have had to cancel my trip to Montreal as my Canadian visa didn't come through soon enough. For some unknown reason, there is a long delay on South African visas, of which neither I nor my Travel agent were aware. I should have applied at least a month to two months ago. In 2003 when I got my visa for the Toronto convention this was not the case at all.
So I must heartily apologise to all those who would have attended my session on Ochberg's orphans. It was too late to courier the movie and apparently it is not available from the Rainmaker Film Company in London either. It seems to have been made for private distribution to the descendants and not commercially. I am heartbroken, especially as Yiddish was going to feature so strongly during the convention.
