Great news, and thanks for the update, Pamela!

I won't be there this year, but for any other Durrellians in driving 
distance, it's always an entertaining event.  I highly recommend it.

Pamela, as the moderator, do you think we can start to think about ways 
to get a goodly contingent of scholars there for next year?  Wouldn't it 
be grand to continue the discussion from OMG XV in Paris in Louisville? 
  I'd love to see the ILDS's two panels filled with some other papers in 
the general panels throughout the conference.

Perhaps we could plan with the HD society to sponsor one of each of our 
two panels on Philhellenism or the image of Greece in "literature since 
1900"?  Perhaps we could ally with the Hemingway Society to sponsor 2 
panels on Paris in lit. since 1900, etc...  It would be nice to see some 
increased communication between the groups and to foster some more 
extensive dialogue within that giant conference.

I'm sure to be on the phone with all of you while you're there, but 
please keep us all updated on the listserv too.

Best,
Jamie
