I'm apologize to everyone, but I have been suddenly called out of town (no bad news) and will not be able to make this seminar. I hate to miss it.

Hi Dr. Cuch ( Dr.Duffy)It was so nice of you to post the slides.We,the lesser mortals of this world, do suffer from financial boundary conditions(restrictions) that prohibit us from reaching for cities like New York. These conditions ,unfortunately, refuses to go away. nevermind the new tightening of visa norms,I can see that there is negligible probability of I ending up sufficiently in the money so that I can land in US of A to participate in the seminar,meet you, Peter,Pat and all the rest( i was wondering about meeting the gentleman from that hedge fund who loves calling CEOs by interesting titles, forgot his name) .May I disturb you later with questions which would require clarification?cheersP.S.- I believe N will be there and he won't bother you to decompose a co-rrelation matrix to show that it is not symmetric.

It will probably easy for you, being an FDM specialist by now! Will you bring a copy of your thesis?Looking forward to seeing your talk this evening, Cuch, even if as usual at those NYU seminars there are no seats for practitioners that arrive 15 minutes late! In case I missed it, did anyone suggest a venue? The scotch selection at d.b.a. was certainly nice...

sammus · October 28th, 2005, 2:53 am

I wasnt able to make it....Hope you had fun!

Cuchulainn · October 28th, 2005, 11:16 pm

Well, thanks for turning up everyone. It was quite a full house considering that there were 2 other seminars in NY at the same time! I reckon we had about 50-60 people.Thanks also for the hospitality everyone. It was nice to meet Exotic, Jan D, Quantie and PutorCall. Did you know that Exotic and Jan are great opera singers? Exotic, it was a great rendition, which aria did it come from?Present in the audience was Dr. Alexander Levin, the first person who applied Soviet Splitting to QF in 2000.I'll post some shots in a few weeks.

Hi NY Wilmotters,I have some nice fotos of you in NYU. Will post them soon. For privacy reasons, if you do not wish to have your face here, please PM (the fotos are all pretty harmless).
