<> LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR

I have spent the last two days completely consumed by the Steering Committee meetings for the Columbia 250th celebration climate symposium (April 22 and 23, 2004) - a tiring couple of days, but extremely stimulating. Wally Broecker's (and Gary Comer's) Wall Street Journal article (front page on Thursday) was much admired by all participants!

Next week will be more mundane - a retreat of all the Directors of the major oceanographic Institutions takes place on Wednesday and Thursday (organized by CORE).  Rita Colwell (Director, NSF) will spend a chunk of time with us - I will report next week upon what is said. The chosen location is Salem Mass. And as part of the retreat there is an organized tour of the witch museum – what does this mean?  Be assured, please that I am skipping the tour, in order to be back here in time for ExCom on Friday - much more intriguing than learning about witches (I think).

Have a quiet weekend - that is my plan.


- Mike
