W., Nov 7, 2009, 2:58AM EST Hello, Nyota! Yes, it is Dr. Ni, back from the--well, not the dead, let's just say the absent! :-) How have you been? I see you have a new book out? I just read the excerpt and I have a question for you: why did you decide to use the vernacular?

What are your thoughts? I would love to hear your reasons! Congrats on publication. :-) view Dr. Niama L.'s profile | Ping Dr. Niama L.
