Hello. Welcome to my website. It started while I was in Europe for a semester, and I've kept it up since then. I'm now at the University of Chicago Law School, living in Hyde Park, and the story continues. If you want to say hi or visit me, email cfloyd at uchicago dot edu.

First off, I have to say I haven't been taking my own advice. The war has driven me back to the computer, since I have no other medium of information and communication.
With that out of the way, I should also qualify what I wrote earlier about Europeans. What I said earlier about losing touch with reality applies more to Chirac and Schroeder than it does to people around here. My roommates and several hospitable Austrians I've met have been checking up on me and showing a lot of kindness. One guy just called and invited me to a movie tomorrow "so we can forget all this crazy stuff." Anti-americanism may be a phenomenon of the European Street, but I have yet to encounter it in any personal contacts. Let's hope that holds.
