I'd like to meet:

André travels often -- especially to college towns. Two places include the M.I.T. Stata Center ("A Party of Drunken Robots") at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of Texas at Austin. He enjoys meeting curious persons who can laugh at themselves.

There is a special place in André's surreal world for persons who applaud the organic humor and talent in the Italian "Green Grocer" below.
