1175 N*rtH lemon Ave. Menlo Perk, Cel 94025 (415) 322 9109 May 14, 1982 Dear Josef , Thank you for your letter. It makes me feel very badly, because it reminds me that I completely forgot to let you know, about two weeks ago, that we had to cancel our summer plans and our reservation at Sils, in view of a short comparative study of the economies of Taiwan and Korea I promised to do, and which will take us to those two countries in July. So, I am afraid we will not be able to meet this summer. At the same time, I also feel that going to a Swiss holiday will probably do you a world of good, so I do not feel too repentant about having tricked you into making a reservation there. And we are definitely planning to go there next year. My book, I am sorry to say, is going to stay unfinished; somehow my co-operation with Lorie Tarshis turned out to be not too satisfactory -- and perhaps also the task we wanted to undertake was too ambitious. We are just on the point of leaving for a short trip to Europe: I am going to a panel discussion in Paris on the probable implications of the computer revolution and related matters. The Mitterand Government seems to be hard put to find American economists not too extremely right wing and monetarists, which probably explains why they invited me, who really know far too little on the subject. If it turns out to be interesting, I will let you know in another letter. With all the best wishes also from Elisabeth, Yours ever
