Here is the "scoop," at this time. I had inquired, of Holger, of
any other mailing address, to which a person might send his or her
registration and fee. I have gotten no response, at all.
When one of the people, with whom he works, made some sort of state-
ment, about how busy Holger is, I sent a private response to him, and
asked that he ask Holger to let us know about the new mailing address.
To this date, I have not received an answer nor have I learnt of a
new address. What I can tell you is that, there is a news announce-
ment, dated September 1, 2000, on the NordicGlobal Web site, in which
Holger states that he is now in the process of getting back to the
people who sent him E-Mails. True, it is now in November, but, let us
see what will happen in the next few weeks.
If I do learn of anything, I will pass it on.
Hope I was of some help. Pershaps, to allay your anxieties, some?
Julian.
