I am overwhelmed by so many offers to step in as postillon d'amour, or rather, postillon de disque. Thanks everybody! Someone local from Chicago has volunteered which probably is the best solution.

I was given to understand that there are excellent seafood restaurants in the Boston area. Apart from music I have a soft spot for gourmet food ... Greetings from Germany Rainer -- Dr. Rainer E.
