Dear Fellow Titans--
It's been great viewing past reunions, postings and keeping track of old friends on this website (thanks Janice and Frank) which links me to 'home' from halfway across the world. So sorry to hear of all those who have passed, but am amazed to see how others have evolved over the past 45 years. I hope to see more postings from the un-reunion event last Friday night.
I had my own sort of 'reunion' on the same night in Zanzibar, Tanzania (where I've lived for almost 25 years) with a 5-person delegation from the University of Utah Health Sciences who were exploring areas for possible partnering on mainland Tanzania. It was great to hear how much has changed at my old alma mater and plans for expansion to other parts of the world, but also tried to sell them on the virtues of considering Zanzibar in their deliberations, so hopefully, they'll be back.
If any of you are considering a safari to this great continent, particularly East Africa, let me know and I'll try to get you hooked up to good people and places. It will change your life... it sure did change mine!!!
Just one request to the 2020 reunion organizing committee: please give me at least a 9 month notice of the date of the reunion so I can arrange transport and the like. Don't want to miss out on the 50th!!!
Karibuni watu wote Zanzibar (Welcome to everyone to Zanzibar)--
