<> LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR
I am writing this in San Francisco at the end of another week-long
Fall AGU meeting. It has been a very good week. Of course
the Lamont Party on Tuesday night (that followed the west
coast Board meeting of the Alumni Association) was the usual
tremendous success. The Town meeting for the Langseth on Thursday
night was surprisingly well attended - given the unavoidable
number of conflicts with other meetings. I managed to get
through my citation for Sean Solomon speech at the Medal ceremonies
on Wednesday night without falling off the podium. (First
time I had given a speech when there was one of those big
jumbotron screens on the stage, projecting a much bigger than
life size image of the speaker in real-time - it is off-putting
to say the least to catch a glimmer in the corner of your
eye, look aside and unexpectedly see a giant version of oneself
standing there, bow-tie askew, hair dishelevelled etc etc).
Anyway, it was a very enjoyable and happy event. Most importantly
the week was dominated by many great talks and posters by
Lamonters, too few of which I had the opportunity to attend.
So now I can look forward to digging my car out of the snow
in economy parking lot at Newark Airport at 10pm tonight -
still have not figured out what to use as a shovel yet. I
hope the weather improves over the weekend because we have
our annual reception for our campus neighbors on Sunday afternoon
and Doug Brusa tells me we have a record response rate this
year with over 85 folks attending.
Have a good weekend - I will be in the office all next week
- lots of things to do and problems to solve before the Holidays.
- Mike
