Dan - Have you cleared this with her ? I am 63 years old. Also, somehow I
believe that my wife would object to this. But, thanks for the kind offer.

>> Dear List,
>>
>> I am happy to report that Dan Leeson is alive and well, and does not eat
>> pizza for breakfast, instead abstemiously choosing a cup of assam tea.
>> He also graciously presented me with a signed copy of his novel, "The
>> Mozart Forgeries" which I have now read, and which is full of copious
>> information on the making of handmade paper, 18th century watermarks,
>> Mozart's manuscript singularities,and Las Vegas lowlife, as well as the
>> capers of a couple of endearing and gifted crooks.
>>
>> All this in that tricky suspense genre where "who done it" is known from
>> the first page but "how" has to be revealed. It's somewhat of an
>> education in the rarified field of original manuscript authentication,
>> too (in this case, the missing clarinet concerto and quintet
>> manuscripts.) Hooray for Dan!
>>
>> You can find more information on his website at:
