Mann" subject: Re: Past Millennia Climate Variability - Review Paper - reminder to: Phil Jones Hey Phi, I'm out at USC for a few days visiting w/ Lowell Stott and folks, then we have a meeting later this week about the future of the ESH program, could have significant implications for paleo funding in the states.. Let me know if you need me to prod anyone on the paper. I'll send a reminder to Gavin and Caspar. Also, how is your blurb on the 1990 last millennium figure coming along? there is a lot of interest in that. if the paper does nothing else put provide a better histiorical explanatino of that, that would be an accomplishment. I'm disappointed about the low abstract count too. I figure it is for precisely the reason you mentoin, I've probably already declined about 6 conferences/workshops/etc/ for this summer. Roland List still hasn't clarified which day our session is, his information was ambiguous. Do you have any independent info on this? talk to you later, mike Phil Jones wrote: > > Mike, > No, I haven't. Francis will send something.
