Hello:

I haven't posted for a long time.  The fall term here was pretty hectic, as
I was teaching in our Freshman Studies program.  A mathematician teaching
about the Spanish conquest of Mexico?  Hmmph!

This term will probably be a whirlwind, too, as I'm preparing for the
Australia travel course.  I have 24 eager students that I'll have Down
Under for a month.  

There's a bit of emotion attached to this for me, as I was in the middle of
the Outback (King's Creek Station) in 2006 when I got the first e-mail
about my elevated PSA.  When I left Australia that year, I wasn't sure I'd
ever get back.  Of course, I've learned a lot since then, but nevertheless,
this trip will mark one small victory for me over PCa.

I wanted to let the newsgroup historians know about my latest PSA.  It
was .02 in December.  My uro thinks it's a twitch, and I agree.  My test
schedule will now be every six months.  

I do lurk, although I haven't been able to keep up the last few weeks.
