Thanks Keith - I knew that I had seen this before. It does make more sense, though it also means I'll have to call the caterer to cancel, or at least change the date. (11th anniversry on 7/20). Do you know what would have become of the correspondence between these dates? Why do you suppose they were unavailable to archive? I believe Paul Kupelian once sent me a print-out of these. Anyway, I believe the date went unnoted last year, so consider it my somewhat tardy recognition.
