See if you can guess who's who. :-) Well, let's see... it's an easy guess that Jeremy wasn't among the group since he was (supposedly) at sea around that time. ;-) I've seen your photo on the physics site, so I think that's probably you in the middle of the group of 3 on the deck of the historical sailing ship ("Mystic"? At least judging by the nameplate on the wheel of one of the previous pics), and probably also you at the podium in a couple of them as well as in front of the projected star atlas. The gentlemen in the green polo shirt and white/khaki slacks looks like it might be Ken Gebhardt (sp?), and the rest I don't have a clue about. But it looks like an interesting group (and thanks again for sending personal invites to the list members), hopefully I'll be able to attend a future one down the road. I take it that Mystic schedules these every other year or so? -- GregR --- frankreed@HistoricalAtlas.net wrote: > > Robert, you wrote: > ""quantum behaviour of hydrogen atoms in the highly curved space-time > near > small black holes".
