Davis, my friend, the fair lady D....
Davis is the most capable person I know. She is who I call when I need my ass kicked, or need motivation, or inspiration. She makes me do things that I must do, but don't nessecarily want to do, but I usually surrender. I love Davis! I miss Davis. November 5, 2005
WE CLICK that girl and me. Damn lucky.

Davis is an awesome person. She's adventurous, creative, and a beautiful dancer and performer (she rocked at the Painted Bride in Philadelphia). She's also generous (at Burning Man, she got Denise fire fingers to loan me when I forgot my fans). Gotta love this babe!!!

Upon returning from India last week with a very programatically successful trip but the dispointing news of Echoing Green, I found myself very alone up there in Portland. Having never really existed there professionally, the little town looked like a big nut to crack while trying to fund Gamanam.

Does anyone out there have a lap-top that they can donate to the project. It does not have to be a super fast one or have wi-fi. Mostly it will be used for word processing and emailing.

My colleague Sohini desperately needs one so that she can travel around doing workshops and keep up on our work and keep it all in one place. So, if anyone has recently upgraded and would like to donate one to a good cause, please send me an email. I think it can also be a tax deductible contribution at... read more
Yesterday was another incredibly full day. We started our morning in the West Bengal Agency for HIV positive people. It is a government arm that works with the positive population in WB... According to them, they have 10,000 people registered in their network and 65% of them are women. Most are from predominantly poorer sectors of society so most are not able to access the cocktail drugs that we might use in the US. I am really skeptical that out of a population of 14mili (in Kolkata alon...

The days have been so packed that I could literally fill a book at this point. But they are also so packed that I have very limited time to write so you will have to settle for what will be a brief update. And also, apologies if my language gets a little garbled. Not much time to edit...

Yesterday, after three days of intense collaboration meetings in Hyderabad, Sohini and I flew to Kolkata to begin our field visits. She has been working in this area for over 10 years so she has well es... read more

Here is what he wrote to me in response to "a dilema in globalization" ______ I was thinking about that a lot in Mexico. The goal of many (including my friend Angel) is to get a job working either in the US or with an American Company. But I will throw another wrench into your dilemma; on the outskirts of Matamoras (and Juarez, and Tijuana) are empty maqueladora factories...because the companies have abandoned Mexico for C... read more
