وصلتني منه هذه الرسالة وأحببت أن أنشرها هنا لأني أعتبرها من متخصص ملتزم بالموضوعية العلمية شهادة للعروض الرقمي أكثر مما هي لي شخصيا. وقد أسعدني أن يجد العروض الرقمي طريقه لأهل الاختصاص.

al-akh al-faaDil Khashan:

You are a gentleman and a scholar.

You are most welcome. We are so lucky and honored to know you.

By the way, last week I presented at the MESA Conference on nuemrical prosody as
the most elegant approach. I gave you your due credit.

If you recall I invited you initially to join the panel. So it is as if you
were there. The problem is that this year the conference was held in Alaska and
not as many people showed up. Not to worry, the journal will hopefully do the
ultimate job.
