Background:
|
Sylvain and I met while taking a nuclear materials class and became
fast friends as he was the most owtward of the French students in the
department. He wanted to learn English better and experience the
American culture. Well, I can honestly say that I showed him
around town and helped him as much as I could. He returned the
favor by inviting me to France for
Christmas 1994, which I have documented in Solfari.com : Places : Fermi.

Sylvain is doing great
living in Florida with his bride and son. I can only expect that
Sylvain is still enjoying the fruits of the US, but his
unpredictability means that you should check back here regularly for
updates!
