I am also a long-term lurker and one of those research students Gail
mentioned who talked last summer on the list about doing something together.
Alas almost a year has passed and nothing happened (to my knowledge).  Let's
not leave it as long again before doing something.  But any suggestions?
The Bourdieu film?
