If we get father afield, we should probably move this to PM

First: Brussels--I haven't been to Brussels for over 5 hours now (i.e. I was there this afternoon!). I'm back in the German Rheinland now, but have to run down to Switzerland tomorrow (there are less pleasant places to "have to" be for work).

Anyway, I'd be happy to help you out if I can. What do you want to know?

Wine All Mine WAS going to be the title of my first novel. It has been re-titled by my agent as "The Time Cellar." It is a totally off the wall plot, but it has a California wine nerd in the year 2010 getting a shot at meeting a retired Thomas Jefferson in the year 1818.

I'll drink, kick and rec to that. n/t reflection Sep 2012 #1
