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!
