These include work with Debbie Bennett-Wood and Aleks Owczarek on polymers at surfaces (cond-mat/9805148) and with Katherine Seaton on the calculation of correlation lengths and the E_8 mass spectrum of the dilute A_3 lattice model (hep-th/9712121).Invited talk at the 2nd Tohwa Meeting on Statistical Physics, Fukuoka, Japan, 4-7 Nov, 1997. 4 pages, revtex, 3 epsf figsStatistical Mechanicstext
