    I would just accept the plaudits – you have made a bigger contribution here than most get to make 🙂

    OK, I won’t send you an e-mail then. Incidentally, Eric was my freshman-year resident advisor at Princeton, next room over from me until overseeing my first-week roommate swap became his first official action. Also in our staircase was Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan, who came to Oxford as well.
