We will have a low key celebration for him on Aug 14. I am not expecting you to come but you may want to organize some tribute from UEA CRU, and if you have any comments you'd like me to make on your behalf, I would gladly do that.

Lisa will provide a budget in due course. Thanks Kevin - -- **************** Kevin E. Trenberth e-mail: [9]trenbert@ucar.edu Climate Analysis Section, [10]www.cgd.ucar.edu/cas/trenbert.html NCAR P.
