This is rather special holiday present! It is not often that you are recognized for having been intellectually stimulated and having fun at the same time. The credit for this goes to my collegues who read and post to the Decentralization segment with intriguing questions, insights and humour. I expect that we will continue to try to unravel the hidden and not so hidden complexity of multi-layered governments as well as multi-layered politics, cultures and economies, and collectively offer useful contributions to solutions. Thanks to all of you and to the Board of the PFMBoard. I hope (and expect) that we will continue to attract a larger and increasingly engaged audience to ask, and propose answers to, our many, fascinating and important questions.
Fitz.
