I'd second the thanks to Radhika here. She's created a space I joined 
in graduate school, before postcolonial studies readers were making the 
field canonical. I've participated in many fruitful and illuminating 
discussions, felt myself a member of an emerging discipline, and 
questioned disciplinary boundaries. The poco listserv influenced my 
sense of not only the concerns and strengths but also the constraints 
of postcolonial studies  Through all of this, Radhika's moderation has 
been critical--inclusive, incisive, and thoughtful.

best, jillana
