He remains in prison at Rebibbia, near Rome. The petition for his release organized in Paris was published about a week ago in a French newspaper (I don't know which one, I've been away) and presented to the European parliament in Strasbourg. It had almost a thousand signatures. There has been discussion in Italy of either an amnesty or an indulto (a commutation or reduction of sentences), but there has been no action lately. Toni appreciates all the support. He is doing well in prison, although of course worried about his prospects. He is allowed visits from family. He and I exchange letters regularly. Antonio Callari, Warren Montag, Ted Stoltze, and myself have formed a US committee in support of his release. We have recently sent out a press release in the hope of attracting publicity to the case. Michael Hardt --- from list aut-op-sy-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
