Thomas, of course I remember your interesting ms., and congrats on Cambridge U. Press!&nbsp; (I myself&nbsp;wrote a couple chapters of an edited volume on the ancient Maya&nbsp;published by them back in 1991.)&nbsp; I think I understand what you're doing with this current ms., and am looking forward to working on it.&nbsp; Thanks so much for the acknowledgement, that's extremely nice of you!&nbsp; My full name is Rebecca McSwain, if you want to use that.&nbsp; RebeccaTDE
