&gt;   the  big trip - probably next year:   8 Central-European tripoints in 8<br/>
&gt;days  !!!   If any of you border-guys should be interested in  this trip,<br/>
&gt;let us know ! I wouldn&#39;t mind organizing such a trip - and the more<br/>
&gt;people we are, the cheaper it would be! Time of the year: May or Sept. <br/>
&gt;Trans-Atlantic  airline fares have become quite affordable, so - what are<br/>
&gt;you waiting for...  ?  <br/>

interested is hardly the word<br/>
<br/>
fascinated magnetized & compelled would be more accurate in my case<br/>
<br/>
so i send you many big thanxx<br/>
both for dreaming & offering up this perfect 8 legged adventure<br/>
as i would eat it at the raw bar without cocktail sauce<br/>
& jack my worldclass point count from 0 to 8 in a single slurp<br/>
& at a literally incalculable rate of improvement<br/>
<br/>
  incalculable i mean unless someone recognizes akcause &or akcausw<br/>
    in which case it would be only 800 or 400 percent<br/>
<br/>
in fact i am tickled further to think<br/>
as you alone probably account for all such real points in & of our entire group<br/>
  & someone please speak up if i am mistaken about this<br/>
anyone who attends will automatically become tied for second place<br/>
not only among us here but probably in the whole world as well<br/>
<br/>
so whatever the outcome<br/>
i am already with you  & even quite early  in spirit<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
still<br/>
i confess the prospect of renewed airline & customs searches is more than a<br/>
little daunting for me personally<br/>
<br/>
  i know  i know<br/>
    real multiadventurers dont whine<br/>
<br/>
so frankly what i am waiting for is a diplomatic passport<br/>
or else a major sea change in human consciousness that would allow me to be<br/>
myself anywhere in the world<br/>
or at least anywhere between my house & central europe<br/>
<br/>
& pending either of these eventualities<br/>
i will be  as i already am  totally tuned in to your adventure<br/>
since it actually is our & my adventure as well<br/>
<br/>
m<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
happily too  this reminds me<br/>
by dint of our various & vicarious abilities<br/>
we already are 44 days now all on the open road together<br/>
& sometimes  & in some cases  separately as well<br/>
with over a dozen major points in the bag & in the offing</div>
