Hi Dominic,
      Re: Conner--I'll be using MoMA's archive prints at
this event.
      Sorry the NEA is still hassling you. I feel very
badly about my role in giving you stress here, and will
hope that the situation resolves well and soon.
      You mentioned two evenings of shows in the fall--do
you know the specific dates? I want to re-connect with
City Lights, once I know when what you have planned will
happen. And of course, also Kathy and Steve.

Very Best, dear Dominic. Was Bruce's passing traumatic for
you? It must have been, must be. You were close to him,
and he always seemed very supportive of you, grateful for
you.

Scott
