Friday passed with nary a word from the Sauerkrauts, as did the weekend. (The latter, of course, was to be expected.) This morning also found the e-mail in box vacant. Given the holiday today, that too, might have been expected. However, this has become quite a serious problem. I'm on vacation this week, and had originally planned to do a series of home improvements and other tasks directly related to our going to China for a couple of years. If we've been rejected, I'd much rather goof off. ;-)
