J. L. Speranza is an Italian born in the pampas who has dedicated his life so far to Gricing this and that. He holds (in the wall of his room) a doctorate [Spe95] from the University of Buenos Aires on Grice - ``Pragmatica Griceana''. (This, he regrets, while recognised by Western Educational Services alright - has been translated as ``Grecian Pragmatics'' - but he don't (sic) mind. He has written extensively, but more recently, spoken extensively on matters Gricean at the Grice Club which he created just to annoy Dan Sperber.
