and hopefully this narrative will as well. the shift key on this keyboard doesn�t work properlz. sorry. i�m in m�nchen, drinking a beer, and am really glad this is a fast connection. my train leaves in a couple of hours, and with any luck, i shall go to sleep and wake up in roma. heh, yeah right. i think i left off in paris somewhere. the details are all ready fading, though.
