Binneh, Thanks for your mail. I am very busy these days, but I am following your interesting postings on the G-L. I am also intouch with Radio Tam Tam, so that we can fix a date for another on-line program on Gambia. After confirmation with them, I will send the date on the G-L. Keep up the good work!
