As an Englishman I have great memories of having lunch in New Haven and 
by chance meeting a fellow pro called Charles Daniels from Somerville 
Ma. - nice guy toting a Mamiya 7 as I recall (I still have his card). 
Happy memories from a time when the US was a place that was easier to 
visit. Now my camera insurers tell me that I am covered for world-wide 
travel except the US where I have to get extra cover because of the 
rouble pros travelling there have!!!
