    New Year's greetings 2011

    Dear friends, students and colleagues,
    Owing to the paralysing and decelerating power of snow, I have been obliged to spend the last few days of the year like a hermit in my house in Kiel. And just as well, for it meant that I was able to concentrate fully on putting the finishing touches to my new book "Resistance is Futile!".

This was based on the film classic "The Seven Samurai" (1954) by the outstanding Japanese director Akira Kurosawa.
    This year it is the EWTO that is writing the screenplay for the Big Seven.
