Now that I’m back from this year's ASEEES, where I got my hard copy from Marko R. Stech, I’m sure that it’s for real. Excited to see my thoughts published along the contributions from so many leaders of our field.

Józef Hen turns 100 today. A real Zeugenberg, he is the last Polish Jewish writer of his generation still with us. He’s also my grandpa and my children’s great grandpa. Thank you, gods, for this most precious gift!
