Upon receipt of the letter of Comrade Dardenne, I alerted immediately Vincent me out of his album is a photo taken of her friend in Freiburg TORGIC Hayek in discussion with (*). With a few years and especially ... a few pounds lighter, no doubt TORGIC SORGIC and are one!
burning with impatience, to find his friend Vincent and I finally know who played such a role in the intellectual development of my son-and thus to mine, we decided to meet at the invitation of Comrade DARDENNE tomorrow and take the plane in Frankfurt that will lead us then to Brussels.
