Theos-Talk Archives (March 2006 Message tt00666)

Dear Jerry,

(copy, Erica)

Thank you very much.

I have also received a kind personal message from Erica and replied to it.

Erica is a long-standing, sincere and  dedicated Theosophist. She has, as 
long as I know,
a progressive, open-minded view of the movement as a whole.

Best regards,  Carlos.
