(1) Thank you very much, indeed, for your cordial invitation to the 31st
conference of the European Society for Engineering Education (SEFI) in
Porto, Portugal, from 7 to 10, September, 2003 (ATTACHMENT I).
I visited the webs you indicated, with great interest.
This will be a wonderful opportunity for me to meet with outstanding
engineers of European countries and others. It will be my privilege and
honor to accept your invitation.
I will accompany my wife, Hisae, with her own fund.
(2) I really appreciate your continuing strong interest in our GUS and
GLOSAS projects.
Pls visit the following two papers;

(3) Incidentally, I am pleased to learn that the SEFI is one of the foundin=
g
members of the International Association for Continuing Engineering
Education (IACEE), which official journal is the International Journal of
Continuing Engineering Education and for which association you are now the
president.
This journal once published the following paper;
Utsumi, T. and P. Gang, =B3Environmental gaming simulation network,=B2 Vol. I,
No. 4, 1991, pp 350-363
If you have a copy of this issue, pls take a look of it.
The above Item (2)-(b) is the follow-up to this paper, as indicating the
future direction of its project.
(4) Should you necessitate me to offer my paper for your conference, pls le=
t
me know which (or both) of the above Item (2)-(a) and/or (b) you prefer to
have. Both are now ready for publication.
(5) I look forward to receiving further information about my attending your
conference.
Dear Prof. dos Santos:
(6) It was my great pleasure to have met with you with Dave Johnson in May
of 1996.
Dear Paulo:
(7) It has been some time since you demonstrated your excellent web teachin=
g
with the parallel use of Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS) during my
workshop in Florianopolis, Brazil in June of 1996.
We may be able to rekindle our friendship as visiting your university in
Coimbra on my way back after the SEFI conference over.
Best, Tak
