Friends --

It's with a heavy heart that I write that my father, Poul Anderson is
receiving hospice care at home and is not expected to live more than a week.
I know that some of you are fans of his work, and if you would care to send
an e-mail direct to my parents house ( trigonier@earthlink.net ) expressing
what it has meant to you, he would be very appreciative. I'll be going down
there myself tomorrow (they're in the Bay Area), so will not be getting mail
here for a few days.
