Christmas 2002

Angelika It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, and our Christmas newsletter is due. Since this year brought us our Green Card and we are often asked how long we plan on staying in America, we are taking this opportunity to reflect after six years. Michael and I have put together a list of pros and cons, which will hopefully bring a smile or two to your faces. Broad generalizations are fully intended. Of course, we won't reveal who wrote what--you'll have to do a bit of guessing yourselves. In any case, we wish you a merry and peaceful Christmas and hope to hear from many of you in 2003. And yes, we will be staying here a little longer, as we must make the most of our Green Card after all the challenges we faced to obtain it.

The best regards to all of you -- until next year!

Angelika und Michael
