Dear Tim, I just succeeded in getting in touch by phone with Eraldo, after trying for quite a long time. Eraldo, his family and all the other colleagues are fine. Eraldo lost a family flat in the center of the town, but nobody was injured. He will not be able to be contacted by e-mail for quite a long time, and is now staying in his house at the beach nearby L'Aquila. Eraldo asked me to inform the colleagues and friends. Best wishes, Aurelio.

I like many other categorists have very fond memories of the welcome given us on visits to l'Aquila. Can I request that as soon as news comes through, of either sort, about our friends there, that the news be shared with this list.
