"Now that" - What does this mean? Sat Feb 16, 2008 16:13 pm  "Now that" - What does this mean?		  
Hello,
Please look at the following sentence. I have just read it in a letter:
''Now that I am able to write to you....''
I wonder what ''now that'' means because I can't find them in all my dictionaries.
