> the U.S. Library of Congress Field Office in Delhi--and also served in
> other locations--where he was involved witht he foreign language
> acquisition programs--originating in the old PL-480. In his Delhi
> position, he enabled LC to collect a broad range of Tibetan materials. For
> non-Tibetan specialists, Gene's Delhi home was an intellectual
> caravansarai where visiting scholars and local intellectuals gathered. In
> a sense, his was a modern incarnation of the "house of the open door" and
> hundreds of scholars benefitted from his generosity. Much more needs to
> be remembered about Gene--I hope we'll have a proper obituary later. FFC
