On May 4, 1983 I received a letter from Manuel Cardona supporting my scholarship for a research stay in his institute in Stuttgart-the sequence of events triggered by this letter has probably shaped my life more than any other document. I was at that time a Ph.D. student and wanted to do my thesis work abroad. I wrote a letter to him with a recommendation from my advisor. Manuel’s reply came a couple of weeks later: it was a short (one page long) letter where he supported my application and briefly sketched a research plan, which turned, with slight modifications, into my Ph.D. thesis a few years later.
