We should talk about a gathering. I think bamably and templeton could be useful to you. I will help On Mon, Feb 1, 2010 at 1:16 PM, Lawrence Krauss < > wrote: SO, how to follow up on the weekend?

We need to get Martin and some others out to AZ.. and we need to start some interesting programs. I don't know where you want to go from here..

School for $2.5M for a program to improve middle school science ed using origins.. I would like to explore with you what we can do that is creative to both free me up to work, and to allow origins to sponsor exciting stuff. Also.. to see if we can funnel money to Martin via ASU, which, as I said is entrepreneurial.. I would suggest $5M for some combination of programming, staffing, and space to faciliate all this, with a clear mandate to run programs on exciting forefront topics including evolutionary dynamics, the physical basis of biology, the physics of information processing including quantum compu
