It's experiential, and we are doing our very best to document it as well!

We really look forward to his attendance for the Symposium event at MIT. The Oct 28th dinner could be last-minute decision on his part, he will always be welcome. Of course we'd love to know as early as possible. It should be a very stimulating evening. I will get the venue for the dinner to you as soon as it is decided. The dinnerwill likely be at a private home in Camrbridge/Brookline.
