    Michael,
    I sense you are in transition from So. Africa and looking for other case studies of transboundary conservation to which you can apply the institutional analysis of Ostrom. I am interested to hear what made you decide to move to Arizona. Do you have family in either place?
    Not surprisingly, I would very much like to read all the ms under review..
    When I see your photo with your kid, I imagine you like to read Craig Childs. Am I right?
    Anne
