I know Miriam fairly well. I have worked with her several times, and have also had some informal chats in her office. She ranks as one of the most kind, down-to-earth individuals I have ever met. She has always treated me as though I was her equal, which I most certainly never will be. I think you will very much enjoy this delightful woman. -- Marie Biancuzzo, RN MS Perinatal Nurse Consultant PO Box 1562 Phone: 703-758-0092 Herndon, Virginia 22070-1562 email: [log in to unmask] On Wed, 23 Aug 1995, Lesley McBurney wrote: > Am collecting Miriam Labbok from the airport tomorrow.
