I'm in India at the moment, on holiday, having a good and fascinating (and sometimes very confronting and bizarre) time, but I just got an email by a friend which told me that unfortunately Robert Jordan has passed away.
I started reading Jordan's books when I was sixteen and have reread them many, many times. I've grown up and lived and breathed those books these past ten years. I once got to see Jordan here in Holland at a book signing, and he was a very gracious and kind man. A great writer has left us, and he will be very much missed.
I hope the concluding book (part 12), when it's released in its final form, will do justice to Jordan's vision and bring his epos to a satisfying and perfect ending.
My good wishes are with his family. What sad news.

Re: India
Well, this just makes me look forward to it all the more. Sounds like you had a great time. We are going to be in the south, south, south, where they've changed the names of all the towns from "ore" to "uru"
We have a veritable pharmacy packed and sounds like we can't bring too much. We have three different antibiotics packed in there, but your advice about the butter was not one I'd thought of. We go to Mexico every year (and every year get sick, with just one year exception) so we need to be even more careful than that, sounds like.
Thanks for the fast response.
Post some pictures now ;-)
