I have been to DC and NY before, so don't need to stop there for long, 
if at all, just to say hello. I might go to DC this summer for a few 
days anyway (Steve ---- you up for that?)

That's great, thanks! I might be able to stretch it a bit, or else I 
will have to splite it into 2 trips (or is that 3 now, including S.A. 
and New Zealand?)

A U.S. only tour sounds increasingly likely here. I could do Alaska and 
Canada in a separate trip. (My G*d, this is turning into a set of trips, 
we're up to 3 now!)
