Subject: Bonn conference

Hi everybody,

My e-mail was not able to send messages in the last weeks, so only now
I have the possibility to write.
I simply want to say that it was a great meeting.
I've seen great plants and grat people.=20
I had the opportunity to see and speak with some of the most famous
personalities in the world of cpers.=20
The only difficulties were: 1- with my english, that I thought I was =
able to speak and understand not bad, while now I know it's really not =
enough.
2- with so many german people, and I don't understand a word in german, =
but I really want to learn it.
3- with my new, painful shoes.
4- with a little bit of shyness, also because my 2 italian friends were =
not=20
always present and it's difficult when anyone speaks your language =
(thanks Fernando!!!) or someone is speaking about =
diffusedcentromericchromosomesandspeciation in Drosera...:)

Anyway, I came back home full of news for my society members, full of =
new
ideas and project (for example the words of Frank Gallep about =
cooperation between cp societies) and full of enthusiasm, also if really =
tired after so many strong emotions and a 11 hours trip.=20
For this reason I hope, and I think, that in the future you will ear =
always more often about cp and cpers in Italy...
Thanks again to all of you (with some I'll stay in contact by e-mail) =
for the
great occasion, the nice discussions, the always present (in Italy, =
Europe and the whole planet I think) atmosphear of friendship between cp =
enthusiasts
of every age and from every country, also when they have never known =
eachother, and thanks to Bonn for the great houses and people.
They were 3 days that I think I'll never forget.
Ciao by

Marcello Catalano
Italian cp Society =20
